Antonio da Vendri
Antonio da Vendri (active 1517–1545) was a 16th-century Italian Renaissance painter.
Not much is known about Antonio da Vendri's life except through his works. Documents show he worked in Verona between 1517–45, not only as a painter, but also as a baker and tailor. As an artist he primarily painted religious-themed paintings for church commissions. One work executed by Antonio da Vendri, The Giusti Family of Verona, is part of the National Gallery collection.[1] He also painted a Madonna and Child with Two Angels in 1518 (Verona, Castelvecchio Museum), and painted frescoes (now lost) in Toblino Castle near Levico Terme, Trentino, in 1536 for Cardinal Bernardo Clesio. A fresco fragment to attributed Antonio da Vendri, Madonna and Child and Saint Roch, survives in the church of Santa Maria in Stelle, Verona.[1]
