Battista dell'Angelo del Moro

Italian, active second half 16th century
BiographySpeculated to have been born in 1515 in Verona, Battista Angolo del Moro worked as a painter, draughtsman and an etcher. He received most of his training from his father-in-law, whose decorative style reflects the influence of Giulio Romano and Titian.

Little is known about Del Moro's early career; he went on to create several fresco façades for an assortment of churches in Verona. Unfortunately, many of these have been worn away due to the damp coastal climate. Del Moro's career continued until he contracted a fatal illness in Verona in 1564. He died there, leaving two sons and a cat as the keepers of his estate.
