done [id. 63, c. 117] and further [c. 122] demands
that Colombini be sentenced to pay him 6 lire for
a Nostra Donna in wax by Pietro Francavilla.
Colombini’s name appears on A.D. Register 103,

10. Gallieno di Michele di Mariano. Rica-
matore. Flor., b. 1454, d.-. S.L. (latter half

having been the father of Raffaello di Gallieno [q.vi\.
G. and his two brothers, Giannozzo and Lorenzo,
followed the same profession. For some interesting
notes on embroiderers’ work in Florence and Siena
during the latter part of the fifteenth century, v.
Vasari, San. IV. 240, n. 1. G. was among the
artists called in on Jan. 23, 1503/4, to advise on a
suitable site for Michelagnolo’s Statue of David

Baldinucci [“ Not. de’ Prof, del Disegno,” ed.
Ranalli, III. 519], he was for some time. In 1578 C.
painted a canvas, “ The Creation of Adam,” for the
festival of S. Luke [A.D., R. 26, c. 9]. On Feb. 11,
1582/3, a Cosimo ( ? if Gamberucci) was paid 9 lire,
6 s., 9 d. for four days’ work for Alessandro Allori
on the “ prospettiva ” for the Friars of Sta. Maria
Novella [Allori MS., Ricordi], In 1596 he received
from the Academy a canvas to paint the portrait
of Signor Francesco Maria Ricasoli, Lieutenant of
the A.D. [A.D., R. 57, c. 50*]. In the same year he
claimed from Micbeiagnolo Segni of Marciana, in
Val di Chiana, 448 lire for having painted two
pictures, one of the “ Last Supper,” the other of
the “Madonna del Rosario” [id. 63, c. 98-105];
and in October, with Camillo Pagni (?), valued a

Maria Novella are : “ S. Thomas Aquinas sur-
rounded by Angels (1)”; Vault over Allori’s and
Butteri’s funeral of Our Lord (8); “ S. Dominic

ed. 1790, 52, 55, 56, 57]. In 1610 C. had painted a
panel for Mr. Annibale Tolomei da Montevarchi and
demanded its valuation by experts [A.D., R. 90,
c. 103*]. In the twelfth chapel of the church of
Sta. Maria Maddalena de’ Pazzi is a large panel of
the “ Nativity ” by C., signed and dated 1618
[Fantozzi, “ Guida di Firenze ”]. C. was a good

S. demanded that Lorenzo di Tommaso Francini
should be sentenced to pay him 4 lire on account of
works given him to paint [id. 63, c. 16*]. In 1591
his bottega was under the Torre di S. Zanobi
[id. id. c. 36]. In 1595/6 he had painted a “ Ma-
donna ” for a certain il Rosso, and in 1597 had
executed three pictures for Lorenzo Lucini, capo-
maestro, for which he claimed 43 lire [id. id. c. 9c*,
121*]. In 1608, on the petition of the Molto Rev.
Piero di Salvatore Fratellini, Prior of Pratolino,
it is notified to S. that, on or before May 28, he is
to deliver to the said Prior a panel of the Madonna
and SS. Pietro and Antonio painted and paid for
at the price of 79 scudi [id. 90, c. 42*]. S. appears
to have been sued on several occasions for small
debts. The last entry in the A.D. Registers that we
have met with concerning him is of the year 1609
[90, c. 81].
13. Gandolfi, Silvio di Mario di Cherubino.
Flor., b. 15—, d. 16—. P. mat. 1585 [A.D., R. 56,

Gambrucci [id. 102, c. 97*], Camarlingo, 1602/3
[id. 103, c. 1*]). S.’s bottega was opposite the
Bargello. He appears to have been a portrait-
painter, as it is noted that in 1595/6 he had painted
the portrait of Gio. Batta Camesecchi, for which he
demanded 21 lire “per parte,” and in 1596 “alia
macchia,” that of Arcangelo Montegonzi, for which

p. of Francesco Morandini [1595, “ Garzone del
Poppi,” id. 102, c. 90*]. C.’s accounts with the
A.D. run from 1585 to 1609, as far as we have seen
them [id. iox, 102, 103]. In 1606/7 he demanded
28 lire from Francesco di . . . for painting . . .
[id. 90, c. 2]. At this date he is described as living
