Tiberio Cerasi (1544 – May 3, 1601) was a Roman jurist and Treasurer-General to Pope Clement VIII. He is mainly known for building the Cerasi Chapel in Santa Maria del Popolo, Rome and commissioning Caravaggio and Annibale Carracci to create three famous paintings there. BiographyHe was born in Rome in 1544 by Stefano Cerasi and Bartolomea Manardi, from Florence. His father, originally from Naples, was hired in Rome in the 1520s as a surgeon at the hospital of Santa Maria della Consolazione, obtaining Roman citizenship in 1530. Tiberio Cerasi studied jurisprudence, and probably acquired a doctorate of both laws. He maintained a close relationship with Santa Maria della Consolazione, where his father had worked, and in August 1583 the hospital rented him a house in the Trevi district for an annual fee of 40 scudi. At that time he was already a lawyer in the Roman Curia, and became a consistorial lawyer in 1589. On 22 September 1590, Cerasi donated the medical and philosophical books of his late father to the Consolazione Hospital under the condition that they will be preserved in the institution for the future use of its doctors. At the time he already lived in the Parione district. On 31 July 1593 Cerasi was appointed rector of the University for that year and for the following year. It was probably towards this period that he embarked on an ecclesiastical career; in September 1595 he also left the post of tax lawyer to become a cleric of the Apostolic Camera (he bought this office for 30,000 scudi with special permission of the pope, instead of the usual sum of 40,000 scudi). In July 1596 he became Treasurer-General of the Apostolic Camera. He died in Frascati on 3 May 1601. He had made his will in March 1598, adding a codicil the day before his death. In this he made the Hospital of Santa Maria della Consolazione as his universal heir. Sources
