a Bolognese painter, the brother of Agostino and Annibale, was born in 1595, and studied under his cousin Lodovico. He attempted to rival that great master, but, failing, left Bologna and went to Rome, where he died in 1622. While at Bologna, lie painted St. Roch and the Angel, in the church of San Rocco, and, in Santa Maria Maggiore, The Death of the Virgin, with the Apostles. There are also a few prints by him.
