Giovanni Battista Salvi (1609 – 1685), better known as Il Sassoferrato, was an Italian Baroque painter renowned for his devotional works and Virgin Mary representations. Born in Sassoferrato in the Marche region of Italy, he was deeply influenced by the style of the Bolognese School and the works of Raphael. His paintings are characterized by their serene and pious nature, meticulous attention to detail, and the use of clear, luminous colors.

Il Sassoferrato's artistry was primarily focused on religious themes, with a particular emphasis on the Madonna and Child. His works often depict the Virgin Mary in moments of contemplation or tender interaction with the infant Jesus, imbued with a sense of grace and tranquility. These paintings were highly sought after by private devotional clients and religious institutions alike, as they resonated with the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on piety and the promotion of Catholic imagery.

Despite his conservative approach to composition and technique, Il Sassoferrato's work was notable for its technical precision and the softness of his figures, which lent his subjects a particularly ethereal quality. His legacy includes a number of altarpieces and smaller devotional images that were widely copied and distributed in his time, and which continue to be appreciated for their devotional impact and artistic merit.

Il Sassoferrato's contribution to Baroque art is significant, as he represents a strand of 17th-century painting that favored a return to the simplicity and purity of earlier Renaissance works, while still engaging with the emotional and spiritual demands of his era. His paintings remain on display in many major museums and galleries around the world, testament to the enduring appeal of his serene and contemplative approach to religious art.
