"Giovanni Battista Zelotti (Italian pronunciation: [dʒoˈvanni batˈtista ddzeˈlɔtti]; 1526 – 28th August 1578) was an Italian painter of the late Renaissance, active in Venice and her mainland ...
territories.
He appears to have been born in Verona, then part of the Venetian mainland, and trained with Antonio Badile and Domenico Riccio, as well as perhaps Titian. Bernasconi claims he trained with his uncle Paolo Farinati. He is called Battista da Verona by Vasari, and was also known as Battista Farinati.
He was a contemporary of Paolo Veronese and shared work in the Villa Soranza near Castelfranco (1551) and at Venice: the ceiling of the Sala del Consiglio dei Dieci in the Doge's Palace (1553-4); the Biblioteca Marciana (1556-7), and the Palazzo Trevisan (1557) on Murano." - (en.wikipedia.org 01.05.2021)
