Onofrio Palumbo

Onofrio Palumbo was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, who was a pupil of Battistello Caracciolo and then of Artemisia Gentileschi in her late years.
He painted an altarpiece of Saint Januarius Protecting Naples from Lightning in the church of the Santissima Trinità dei Pellegrini, an Annunciation and a Nativity of Jesus in Santa Maria della Salute, as well as a contemporary portrait of Masaniello and several other works for several churches and monasteries in Naples.
Other works which have been attributed to him include a Resurrection of Christ, a Crucifixion and a Liberation of Saint Peter, as well as collaborative works including Triumph of David, Judgement of Paris. He contributed to Artemisia Gentileschi's Susanna and the Elders, and probably her Bathsheba and Adoration of the Magi as well.
Palumbo most likely died around 1656, during the plague epidemic in Naples.
