Bernardino Nocchi

By 1769, Nocchi and his contemporary Stefano Tofanelli had moved to Rome, where they entered the studio of Niccolò Lapiccola.

[1] In 1780, he helped decorate the Apostolic palace and in 1785 the Stanza delle Stampe of the Vatican Library.

In 1797, he painted the Transit of St Joseph for the church of San Secondo in Gubbio; in 1804, he completes the Death of St Anne for the Basilica di San Frediano in Spoleto.

Returning to Rome, Nocchi painted in 1799 a portrait of Prince Camillo Borghese; in 1803, Glory of Santa Pudenziana (for the church of the same name), San Novato, and San Timoteo.
