was a Milanese artist of the 10th century, who produced the celebrated palliotto d'oro,or gold pallium, for the Church of San Ambrogio at Milan, which Lanzi says "may be pronounced, in point of style, equal to the finest specimens of the dittici, or small ivory altarpieces; tha: the museums of sacred art can afford." See Lanzi, Storia: Pittonrica dell Itaia (Milan, 1824-25).
