Alessandro Turchi
1578 – 1649
Italian painter called l'Orbetto, also known as Alessandro Veronese. He gained his nickname l'Orbetto from guiding his father who took to begging after becoming blind ('orbo' in Italian). Recorded in 1597 as a member of Felice Brusasorci 's studio, Alessandro worked in an idiom that reflected Veronese painting traditions, completing commissions for local churches after his master's death in 1605.
