query: L'ultimo giorno di Pompei influenced the canvas painting by the artist of what nationality in the period 1830-33?

pos: L'ultimo giorno di Pompei L'ultimo giorno di Pompei ("The last day of Pompeii") is an opera ("dramma per musica") in two acts composed by Giovanni Pacini to an Italian libretto by Andrea Leone Tottola. It premiered to great success at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples on 19 November 1825 followed by productions in the major opera houses of Italy, Austria, France, and Portugal. When Pacini's popularity declined in the mid-19th century, the opera was all but forgotten until 1996 when it received its first performance in modern times at the Festival della Valle d'Itria in Martina Franca. "L'ultimo giorno di Pompei" influenced either directly or indirectly several other 19th-century works, most notably Karl Bryullov's 1833 painting, "The Last Day of Pompeii".

neg: Tommaso Salini Tommaso Salini (1575 – 13 September 1625) was an Italian painter of the early-Baroque period, active in Rome. He is best remembered for defending his friend, Giovanni Baglione, in his libel suit against Caravaggio and other painters in his circle. Baglioni describes his still life paintings. He joined the Accademia di San Luca in 1605. Salini is a frequently forgotten Baroque artist who fell under the spell of Caravaggio, despite having a tempestuous relationship with the great painter. Salini, also known as Mao, was a friend of Giovanni Baglione, the Italian art biographer, who included Salini in his "Le vite de’ pittori." Art historians have often shied away from exploring Salini’s career because the canvases that have carried his name seem stylistically dissimilar. The recent tendency has been to attribute these works to anonymous "Pseudo-Salini" painters. In order for Salini’s "oeuvre" to be presented with accuracy, connoisseurs have had to inspect the original works that Baglione mentions as being by Salini’s hand, as well as the pictures that have been successfully attributed to him.
