Lorenzo Zacchia il Giovane, Italian painter and engraver. He was a cousin of the Lucchese painter Ezechia da Vezzano, known as Zacchia il Vecchio, who probably brought him up and from whom he learnt to paint in the Florentine High Renaissance style. However, his Adoration of the Shepherds (1576; Museo e Pinacoteca Nazionale, Lucca) is in an obviously mature style that owes something to the Mannerist compositions of Bronzino, particularly to his altarpiece (1564) on the same subject for San Stefano dei Cavalieri, Pisa. Two other reliably datable works, from the 1580s, feature typical Counter-Reformation themes: a Virgin and Child with SS Louis and John the Evangelist (1585; San Paolino, Lucca) and a Crucifixion with SS Lawrence and Julian (1587; Sant'Anastasio, Lucca). Lorenzo treated these subjects in a style closer to that of Zacchia il Vecchio and Fra Bartolomeo. //
