Francesco Beccaruzzi

1492 – 1563

Italian painter. Little of his life is known; most of his documented works were completed in the town of Conegliano, in the province of Treviso. He was probably a pupil of Pordenone, and was also influenced by the painting of Bonifacio de'Pitati, Titian and Jacopo Bassano. There are over fifty documented works attributed to Beccaruzzi, many of which are portraits, but also some religious subjects. One of his well known religious pieces is Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata, painted in 1545, and now in the Accademia in Venice. Among his other works of sacred subject the Assumption of Mary, painted between 1540 and 1544 at the Church of Valdobbiadene, can be mentioned. Of his well known portraits noteworthy is the Portrait of a Man, painted around 1550, now in the Galleria degli Uffizi.
