Biography

He was born in Verona, and died as late as 1552-54 by some accounts. He worked in Sala in the Ticino on Lago di Garda, in Rimini (1521), and possibly in Rome. He was influenced by Giovanni Francesco Caroto and Girolamo dai Libri, later by Palma Vecchio, il Romanino, and Giovanni Cariani. He recalls Niccolo Giolfino in his style.[2]
