Domenico Piola fue un pintor italiano, uno de los principales exponentes del barroco genovés. Su familia era propietaria de un prolífico taller que colaboraba con frecuencia con otros artistas.[1] Domenico trabajó en los frescos del techo de muchas iglesias y palacios genoveses y en lienzos para coleccionistas privados.
Siguiendo la tradición humanista italiana, Piola fue un artista versátil que se dedicó a la pintura, pero fue igualmente un notable dibujante, grabador y diseñador. Fue el artista más notable de la ciudad de Génova durante la segunda mitad del siglo XVII, de fama reconocida tanto por sus encargos públicos como particulares.
Su primer maestro fue su cuñado de 17 años, Stefano Camogli,[2] y después fue enseñado por su hermano mayor Pellegro y luego estudió con el maestro de Pellegro, Giovanni Domenico Cappellino . Algunas copias tempranas de obras de Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione y una cada vez más estrecha relación profesional con Valerio Castello, entre finales de 1640 y principios de la siguiente década, le llevaron a un mayor desarrollo de un estilo progresivamente más barroco.[1]
Desde 1650 en adelante, la familia Piola desempeñó un papel dominante en la decoración de los techos genoveses durante casi un siglo. Mientras Domenico fue la figura clave en el estudio familiar, conocido como Casa Piola, otros miembros fueron su hermano menor, su cuñado Stefano Camogli, sus tres hijos y los dos hijos de su consuegro. El estudio agilizó el diseño y la producción de techos decorados y también produjo diseños para escultores y artesanos en madera, cerámica y metalurgia.[3]
En 1684-1685 Domenico visitó Milán, Piacenza, Bolonia y Asti. En Piacenza pintó decoraciones en la Casa Baldini. En Génova, en 1688, él y Gregorio de Ferrari comenzaron a decorar habitaciones en el Palazzo Rosso sobre el tema de las cuatro estaciones, Piola ejecutando el Otoño y el Invierno y Ferrari la Primavera y Verano, más líricos. Los dibujos preparatorios para el invierno sobreviven .
