Biography

Born in Florence, she trained under the engraver Cosimo Colombini. She then studied painting under Violante Cerroti. Finally she worked also under Giuseppe Parenti, a pupil of Vincenzo Meucci.

She painted a St Lawrence for the church of Castelbonfi. She painted altarpieces for churches in Porciano, Pontedera, and Lari. She settled and married in Arezzo, where she continued to paint, including a canvas for the Capuchin priests. She was in demand as a portraitist.[1]

gollark: I feel like this is an unproductively large number of channels.
gollark: No idea, not really, yes, people do that a lot, that's kind of done a bit, no.
gollark: The English-y GCSEs are very annoying. I did better in Ancient Greek and Latin than English on the mock things (literature/language were just done as one exam for some reason).
gollark: Anyway, I did decently on my mock exam stuff, so if they use those as my actual grades I should be okay.
