This architect, an amateur poet, and also the party companion of Caravaggio is a character straight out of a swashbuckling story, one of the most colorful in the artistic life of XVII century Rome. As soon as he left prison, he came right back. He was accused of disturbing the peace, insults, fights, quarrels in brothels, and armed assaults on private persons (e.g. his competitor – the painter Giuseppe Cesari). He was most fond of spending nights on Roman streets and in taverns. He had a wife and quite a large group of children.

Initially he was an assistant to his father Martino Longhi (the Elder), and after his death in 1591 he took over his commissions. When he himself died, his works were continued by his son – Martino Longhi (the Younger). When along with Caravaggio he was entangled in a murder case and sentenced to exile, Onorio Longhi went to Milan and did not come back until 1611 when he was pardoned, finding work at the construction of the Church of San Carlo al Corso. It was the most important from among his Roman commissions. He worked on the church until his death, while later the construction was supervised by his son Martino Longhi (the Younger) and Pietro da Cortona.

Tombstone of Virgilio Crescenzi in the atrium of the Church of San Gregorio Magno
Chapel of cardinal Santoro in the Basilica of St. John on the Lateran (San Giovanni in Laterano)
