Amidano, Giulio Cesare

Italian original Cite

AMIDANO, GIULIO CESARE. - Painter, b. in Parma in 1566, d. there in 1630. In old guides and dictionaries he is falsely called Pomponio A. He was a pupil of Pomponio Allegri and of Girolamo Mazzola. Among his certain works are the Martyrdom of St. Peter (1612), executed for the church of Vigatto (Parma), and the Marriage of St. Catherine (Parma, S.ma Trinità dei Rossi, 1616). He is sometimes confused with Luigi A., a little-known painter. Ancient tradition holds that he was the teacher of Schedoni.
