France's persistent efforts to have the artist come to Turin to serve as the miniaturist for the Turinese court. Garzoni reached Turin in 1632 and lived there until 1637. After staying in Turin, Garzoni became familiar with the work of fellow artists Fede Galizia and Panfilo Nuvolone. A few years later in 1640, Garzoni arrived in Paris and stayed there until 1642 when she went to Rome. Garzoni traveled back and forth from Rome to Florence until 1651 where her primary clients were in the Medici Family, particularly Grand Duke Ferdinando II, Grand Duchess Victoria, and Cardinal Giovan Carlo. After serving the Medici Court, Garzoni decided to settle in Rome in 1651 where she worked continue producing work for the Florentine Court. As well as painting, Garzoni attended the Accademia di San Luca, where she followed events and discussion aimed at educating, socializing, and professionalizing painters, architects and sculptors of Rome. It is noted by several historians that Garzoni's pieces were so well received by the public; she was able to ask any price for her paintings. Notable works and clients One of Garzoni's earliest works, Self-portrait as Apollo in which she appears rational and contained, appears to have been modelled on Gentileschi's Self-portrait as a Lute Player, although to very different ends. Around 1626-1633, Cassiano dal Pozzo acquired several studies of citrus fruit painted in watercolor on parchment by Garzoni for a treatise about the fruit. One study of citrus fruit from dal Pozzo's collection, attributed to Garzoni, was sold Sotheby's, New York, 25 January 2011, Lot 122. She probably had links to the Accademia dei Lincei. In 1635, Garzoni made the first known portrait miniature of a Black person, Ethiopian traveller Zaga Christ (c. 1616–1638), possibly commissioned by Christ himself as a present for the French court. Plate with White Beans: Plate with White Beans was one of the several works of art commissioned by the Medici family. The still life, painted sometime between 1650-1662, is a naturalistic study of beans in various stages of ripeness and decay. It is collection of the Galleria Palatina in Florence. Portrait of Carlo Emanuele I, Duke of Savory: Created between 1623–1637 when Garzoni was invited to work for the court of Turin by Christina of France in 1632, this painting is now located in Palazzo Reale, Turin and was last restored in 1995.
