GANDOLFINO DA RORETO
(b. ~1470 Asti, d. ~1520 Piemonte)
Italian painter, also called Gandolfino d’Asti. He was born in Asti and active in Piedmont, working in Asti, Alessandria and Montferrat. He was apprenticed under his father, Giovanni da Roreto, but no works are known from that period. His first documented work is an Assumption with Saints (1493, Galleria Sabauda, Turin). His style was influenced by that of Ligurian and Provençal artists, such as Louis Bréa. Later he was also influenced by Milanese painters such as Bergognone and Bernardo Zenale.
Works by his workshop in Asti include several polyptychs for local churches.
