Guido Reni (1575–1642), also known as “il Guido” or “Le Guide”, is represented in catalogues by works whose subjects and dates span several decades. The Art Institute of Chicago associates his name with *Abduction of Helen*, dated after 1627, and *Science or The Love of Study*, dated to around 1635.
CulturaItalia attributes a *San Giovanni Battista* to Reni, assigning it a broad date range of 1600 to 1649 and giving its dimensions as 230 cm high by 152 cm wide. The entry locates the work in the Appartamento Storico, Room XVIII, of the Palazzo Reale in Naples, where it bears the inventory number 934 (1980).
