Excerpt from Wikipedia:

Jacques Courtois or Giacomo Cortese, called il Borgognone or le Bourguignon(12 ?December 1621 - 14 November 1676) was a Franc-comtois-Italian painter, draughtsman and etcher. He was mainly active in Rome and Florence and became known as the leading battle painter of his age. He also created history paintings and portraits. He became a Jesuit later in life but continued to paint

Jacques Courtois is predominantly known for his battle scenes, although he also painted religious scenes as well as idyllic landscapes. In his religious commissions he showed his familiarity with the work of Pietro da Cortona with whom he and his brother had worked. He is also known for a few portraits including one of his patron Prince Mattias de' Medici and a self-portrait.
