Accademia degli Incamminati. He initially obtained some success as a restorer
of classical sculptures but also rapidly established himself as the principal rival
of Gian Lorenzo Bernini as a portrait artist. Alegri was less pictorial and
dynamic than Bernini’s, his portraits were appreciated for their sobriety and
surface realism.
