Giovanni Battista Lanceni

Giovanni Battista Lanceni or Giambattista Lanzani or Lanzeni (after 1659 – 1735) was an Italian painter and engraver[1] of the Baroque period active mainly in Verona.

By the age of 16 years he had been placed into an apprenticeship under Andrea Voltolini in Verona, from where he moved to work under Francesco Barbieri.

His daughter (born 1698) became a nun in the monastery of Santa Caterina dalla Ruota.

Because she was also a painter, she was nicknamed Suor Michelangela, and in 1718 painted a Santa Caterina debating with the Doctors of Alexandria before the Emperor Maxentius.
