Italian painter and wood-carver. Though originally from Alessandria, he was released from the bonds of patria potestà in Genoa in 1453 by his father, Giacomo Mazone (active 1434-1453), who was also a painter. Giovanni's first recorded commission dates from 1463, when he was engaged to make a relief-carving on an altar (untraced) for the chapel of San Giovanni Battista in Genoa Cathedral.Show more
