Few biographical details are known about the Lombard painter Claudio Bernacchi, but his name appears frequently in the second half of the 19th century as a painter and architect in the realisation of works in Milan (such as the Pavilion built in 1857 in Piazza di Loreto on the occasion of the entry into Milan of the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph and his wife), as well as a teacher of ornamentation at the Brera Academy. The painting is presented in a gilded frame from the end of the 19th century, with some missing pieces.
