Which famous painting is not by Guido Reni?

  • The Last Supper

  • Aurora

  • St. Joseph with the Infant Jesus

  • The Adoration of the Magi

Answer

Aurora, often attributed to Guido Reni, is actually the work of Guercino. While both artists were prominent Italian Baroque painters, Guercino, whose real name was Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, created Aurora as a ceiling fresco for the Casino dell'Aurora in the Palazzo Pallavicini-Rospigliosi in Rome. Despite sharing visual similarities to Reni's style, Guercino's distinct approach lends Aurora its unique charm and significance in the world of Baroque art.
