Giovanni Bernardino Azzolini

Giovanni Bernardino Azzolini (c. 1572 – 12 December 1645) was an Italian painter and sculptor who continued painting in a late-Mannerist style,[1] mainly active in Naples and Genoa.

He then settled in Genoa, where he was elected to local Accademia di San Luca (painter's guild) in 1618.

In Naples, he painted a Presentation at the Temple (1599) for the church of Santa Maria La Nova.

He painted a canvas of St. Francis Xavier's vision of the Virgin for the saint's chapel in the church of Gesù Nuovo in Naples.

[2] His daughter married the painter Jusepe de Ribera and his son-in-law worked together with him on some commissions.
