COSTA, LORENZO (146o-r535)

This article appears in Volume V07, Page 219 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: COR-CRE
COSTA, LORENZO (146o-r535) , Italian painter, was born at Ferrara, but went in early
life
  to Bologna and ranks with the Bolognese school. In 1438 he painted his famous " Madonna and Child with the Bentivoglio family," and other frescoes, on the walls of the Bentivoglio chapel in San Giacomo
Maggiore
 , and he followed this with many other works. He was a
great
  friend of
Francia
 , who was much influenced by him. In 1509 he went to Mantua, where his
patron
  was the Marquis
Francesco
 
Gonzaga
 , and he eventually died there. His " Madonna and Child en-throned " is in the
National
  Gallery, London, but his
chief
  works are at Bologna. His sons, Ippolito (15o61561) and
Girolamo
 , were also painters, and so was
Girolamo
 's son Lorenzo the younger (15371583).
