In the life of Francesco Albani
The whole life1645–1660
The workshop turns out replicas
Extensive workshop assistance and the execution of many replicas account for the decline in quality of works datable after 1645; other accounts say that for the last thirty years of his life the workshop kept producing small mythological and religious pictures of uneven quality.
1651
Letters to Andrea Sacchi on the Bamboccianti
In an exchange of letters with his pupil Andrea Sacchi Albani shows little regard for the northern Bamboccianti in Rome, though he unexpectedly appreciates the satirical and humorous content of their paintings.
4 October 1660
