Biography

On 3 July 1579, Ascanio Piccolomini was appointed during the papacy of Pope Gregory XIII as Coadjutor Archbishop of Siena and Titular Archbishop of Colossae.[1][2] On 11 September 1579, he was consecrated bishop by Spinello Benci, Bishop of Montepulciano, with Claudio Borghese, Bishop of Grosseto, and Francesco Maria Piccolomini, Bishop of Pienza, serving as co-consecrators.[2] In 1588, he succeeded to the bishopric of Siena.[1][2] He served as Archbishop of Siena until his death on 13 May 1597.[2]

While bishop, he was the principal co-consecrator of Antonio Fera, Bishop of Marsico Nuovo (1584).[2]

gollark: An AAAA/A record holds the IP to connect to when accessing the domain.
