Biography

Gaudenzio was born at Valduggia, Piedmont, and is allegedly learned painting at Vercelli from Girolamo Giovenone. He next studied in Milan, in the school of Scotto, and some say of Bernardino Luini; towards 1504 he proceeded to Florence, and afterwards (it used to be alleged) to Rome. He ultimately died in Milan. He is not family of either of two Northern Italian painters of the same name, the Piedmontese Defendente Ferrari (c1490-1535) and the Vercelli native Eusebio Ferrari (1508-33).
