Tommaso Aldrovandini

He decorated churches, palaces, and theaters in Forlì, Verona, Venice, Parma, Turin, Ferrara, and Genoa, and especially in his native Bologna.

After decorating two chapels of the portico of St. Luke, he went to Forlì, where he painted the hall of the Public Palace with his uncle and Cignani.

Here he worked decorating the portico of San Bartolomeo as well as in various palaces, as in that of Marescalchi, where the figures were made by Felice Cignani, Ranuzzi, Zaniboni, Grassi, Fongarini.

He decorated the rooms of the Great and the Little Council in the Public Palace (destroyed in 1777), the first in 1702 with Franceschini, the other in 1704 with the Genoese Domenico Parodi.

He then painted with Giacomo Boni, a pupil of M. A. Franceschini, two chapels of the church of the Benedictine monks of Parma, until he finally returned to Bologna in 1725.
