Details

Italian painter and draftsman (also known as Nosadella). He was active only briefly, first documented in 1558 and dying in 1571 in Bologna. He appears to have travelled to Rome. He was a pupil of Pellegrino Tibaldi. Few of his paintings have certain attribution; among them are a Madonna and Child with Saints, painted for the Oratorio of Santa Maria della Vita in Bologna, and a Circumcision (1571), painted for the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore and completed by Prospero Fontana. Ignored by the artist-biographer Giorgio Vasari and his contemporaries, Nosadella's oeuvre has been reassessed only recently by scholars, who have been challenged to distinguish his pictures from those of his master, Pellegrino Tibaldi. //
