A visit from Prince Władysław Sigismund Vasa of Poland
During his tour of Western Europe Prince Władysław Sigismund Vasa of Poland visits Reni's workshop in Bologna; a close rapport grows between painter and prince, and drawings and paintings are acquired.

The late years: debts and hurried work
By the 1630s Reni's style becomes looser: the paint is less thickly applied and the colours lighter. A compulsive gambler, he was often short of money and, according to his biographer Malvasia, hurried his work and let his workshop produce many copies; the paintings of his last years include many unfinished works.
