LifeLegnanino was born in Milan as the first born son of the painter Giovanni Ambrogio Legnani and Isabella Bussola. His grandfather Tommaso Legnani was also a painter. Legnanino likely received his first art training with his father. It has been conjectured that subsequently he went on to work in the studio of Carlo Cignani in Bologna from 1683 to 1686, and then apprenticed with Carlo Maratta in Rome. However, neither of these apprenticeships are confirmed by documentation.[1] On 30 October 1694 the artist married Caterina Sanpietro, with whom he had three daughters. In that year he also received an important commission from Count Ottavio Provana di Druent to paint a series of celebratory frescoes in his residence, today known as Palazzo Falletti Barolo. The works he realised there established his reputation and were instrumental in him obtaining in 1695 a very prestigious commission to create the fresco decorations for the new palace of Emmanuel Philibert, Prince of Carignano. This palace had been designed by Guarino Guarini.[1] In 1695 Legnanino joined the local Academy of St. Lucas, and became its director in 1698. In 1703 he bought a noble residence in Milan for which he paid a high price, a sign of his success. In Novara, he painted the cupola of San Gaudenzio. In Milan, he painted frescoes of the life of St James at the church of Sant'Angelo. He also painted frescoes in the Cathedral of Monza. He also painted in Turin and Genoa. Legnanino died in Milan on 4 May 1713 at the age of 52.[1] WorkThe artist was a canvas and fresco painter whose principal works were religious compositions painted for the various religious institutions and churches in and around Milan. He also painted important commissions in the palaces of the local aristocracy.[1] His work shows the influence of Correggio and Parmigianino in his palette, mixed with the tradition of Roman classicism. In his compositions the architectural structures and the figures merge seamlessly and he blends nuanced shades and bright colors.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 4 Casellato , LEGNANI, Stefano Maria, detto il Legnanino in: Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani - Volume 64 (2005) {{link language|it|Italian}} 2. ^1 Il Legnanino, genio della pittura barocca, 8 December 2013 at the Museo del Territorio Vimercatese {{link language|it|Italian}} External links
