GIOVANNI DA UDINE, born in Udine,
Oct. 15, 1487, died
in Rome in 1564.
Umbrian school.
Real name Giovanni
de' Recamatori,
son of Francesco
de' Recamatori (of
the Embroiderers).
Pupil of Giorgione,
but afterwards of
Raphael, under
whom he superintended the ornamental
decorations in the Vatican Loggie, such as
animals, birds, fruit, flowers, and grotesques.
His arabesques have ever since been considered
models of their type. In 1527, when
Rome was sacked by the Constable de Bourbon,
he went to Florence and painted for
the Medici; worked also in Udine, Venice,
and in other cities, but finally returned to
Rome about 1550. Most of his works are
mural decorations. Among the easel pictures
attributed to him are: Christ among
the Doctors, Holy Family, Venice Academy;
Madonna and Saints, Palazzo Manfrini, Venice;
do., Museo Civico, ib. The only authenticated
work of this kind is a Madonna
Enthroned (1517), belonging to Signor
Frizzoni, Bergamo.—Ch. Blanc, École ombrienne;
Vasari, ed. Mil., vi. 549; ed. Le
Mon., xii. 300; Burckhardt, 178; Lübke,
