What Wikipedia says

Prospero Fontana (1512–1597) was an Italian painter of late Renaissance and Mannerist art. He is perhaps best known for his frescoes and architectural detailing. The speed in which he completed paintings earned him commissions where he worked with other prominent artists of the period.
