Piccola, Niccola (or Niccola Lapicola)
a Sicilian painter, was born at Crotona, in Calabria Ultra, in 1730. He studied under Francesco Alancini at Rome, and acquired considerable repultation. He executed several works for the churches in that city, and decorated the cupola of a chapel in the Vaticaln, which was so much esteemed that it was afterwards copied in mosaic. Many paintings by Piccola are at Veletri, but none of his works are specified. He died in 1790.
