Tommaso Laureti

Tommaso Laureti, often called Tommaso Laureti Siciliano (c. 1530 — 22 September 1602),^[1] was an Italian painter from Sicily who trained in the atelier of the aged Sebastiano del Piombo and worked in Bologna. From 1582, he worked for papal patrons in Rome in a Michelangelo-inspired style with special skill in illusionistic perspective, that in his Roman work avoided all but traces of Mannerism.^[2]
