Meets Marcello Sacchetti
His acquaintance with the Marchese Marcello Sacchetti, later papal treasurer, proved decisive for his early career: it was his copy of Raphael's “Galatea” that caught Sacchetti's eye. For Sacchetti Pietro painted “The Sacrifice of Polyxena” and “The Triumph of Bacchus” (now in the Capitoline Museums), and through him he met the poet Giambattista Marino.
1622–1623
Frescoes in the Palazzo Mattei
Under the direction of Agostino Ciampelli, Pietro took part in the fresco decoration of the Palazzo Mattei in Rome — the Mattei family were among his first patrons.
