but that many of his paintings also reached the
Court of the Emperor Rudolph, and others the
Court of France. Henry IV invited Giovan Battista
to Paris, but he was unable to proceed thither.
Baldinucci [ut sup. 587] states that many of his
works were engraved by Cornelio Galli (il Vecchio)
and others of that time. In the books of the A.D.
the following entries refer to Paggi. In Jan. 1595/6
he demanded payment for a picture, representing
Our Lord stripped by the Jews on Mount Calvary,
painted for Messer Piero di Fernandes Salinas, the
price being 50 ducats or more. Later in the year
the painting was valued by the Cav. Lorenzo
Sirigatti and Battista di Matteo Pucci at 55 ducats
[A.D., R. 63, c. 354; id. 28, 12*]. In 1596 also he
received a canvas from the A.D. to paint the
portrait of Signor Simone Guiducci, a former
lieutenant [id. 28, c. 50*]. Giovan Battista res.
while in Florence in the house at the corner of the
Via del Mandolo, which had originally belonged to
Andrea del Sarto, and had subsequently been
inhabited by Federigo Zuccaro; his studio was in
the Via della Crocetta [Fantozzi, “ Pianta Geom. di
Firenze,” Nos. 466, 468].
After an earlier abortive attempt Giovan Battista
was finally permitted to return to Genoa in 1599
[Soprani, ut sup. 105] under a safe conduct granted
for an indefinite period, when his connection with
Florence ceased. For his works in Genoa we would
refer the reader to the authorities named in this
article; merely mentioning his table of the
Definition and Division of Painting, commonly called
“ La Tavola di Paggi,” and noting that, according to
Soprani [ut sup. 112], Simone Balli, when he came
to Genoa with Aurelio Lomi, frequented the Master’s
studio to improve his colouring. Camponi [“ Mem.
Biog. degli S.A.P., etc. di Carrara ”] states that
in a Carrarese document of the seventeenth century
the pictures of the altars of S. Antonio Abbate and
of S. Genesio, which are still preserved in the Duomo
of Carrara, are attributed to Paggi.

-. P. Phy. A. Nov. 29, 1375, pop. S.M.
Novella [Cod. VII. IX.]. S.L. 1393 [? possible date
of death].
8. Pagni, Benedetto, Da Pescia. B. 15—, d.
15—. P. p. of Giulio Romano. Benedetto accom-
panied his master to Mantua, where he painted in
the Palazzo del Te. He worked much in his native
place, and for the Duomo of Pisa painted an altar-
piece, which appears to have been subsequently
removed to make way for one by Bronzino. Bene-
detto also painted a picture of Our Lady, in which
he introduced Florence presenting to the ■ Virgin
the Princes (Dignita) of the House of Medici. This
picture in Vasari’s time was in the possession of
Signor Mandragone, a Spanish favourite of the
Duke of Florence [Vasari, San. V. 533, 535, 537, 538,
557]. The Duomo of Pescia contains an altar-

piece—The Marriage of Cana—by Benedetto [de
Boni, “ Biog. degli Artisti ”].
9. Pagni, Camillo di Zanobi di Lorenzo da
S. Casciano. B. 15—, d. 1608. P. entered in
mat. Aug. 6, 1576 [A.D., R. 56, c. 19*], but received
a candle on Candlemas Day, 1574/5; therefore must
have mat. earlier [id. 25, c. 50*]. A.D. (Camarlingo,
1586-7) [id. 102, c. 1; 27, c. 120]; Consul del Corpo
i584(Dec.)[/(Z.95]; ConsulAccademico, 1598(Dec.),
1601 (Dec.) [id. 97], 1607 (April) [id. 98]. Two or
three entries in the A.D. Registers relate only to
small debts owing by Camillo. In Oct. 1604 he
claims 65 lire from Camillo Gherardini for a “ tela ”
[id. 89, c. 75, 76*]. In Feb. 1608/9 his heirs pay
a sum of 2 lire on his account [id. 103, c. 24], and
on May 21, 1608/9, summon Vincentio d’ Ambra to
pay 76 lire for some paintings executed by Camillo
[id. 90, c. 71*]. The P.’s brother, Raffaello, was an
engineer and A. [Tanfani, “ Not. di Artisti,” 443-51].
10. Pagnini, Jacopo di Giovanni, detto il
Damerino. Flor., b. 15—, d. 16—. P. mat.
July 13, 1589 [A.D., R. 56, c. 106*]. In 1595
Jacopo claimed 63 lire from Simone di Pagolo
Quaratesi for a book debt, and in 1597 13.13 lire
from Luca Marcionini, in both instances probably on
account of works executed [id. 63, c. 74*, 125].
11. Pagolini, Andrea di Domenico. Pisa?
b. 15—, d. 16—. P. mat. at Pisa, 1595 [A.D., R.
27, c. 27]. He appears to have come to Florence
at once, as in 1596 he painted a canvas for the
annual festival of S. Luke: Adam tilling the
Ground [id. id. c. 136]. In Oct. 1602 Andrea
demanded that Flavio Giugni in the Palazzo Medici in
Via Larga pay him 80 lire for portraits at the rate
of 4.10 lire each [id. 89, c. 38].
12. Pagolini, Orazio di Luigi. Flor., b. 15—,
d. -. P. mat. July 13, 1589 [A.D., R. 567
c. 108-].
13. Pagolo di Giovan Francesco. Flor., b.
15—, d.-. In Feb. 1583/4 Pagolo paid 4 lire on
account of mat.
14. Paladini, Filippo di Benedetto. Pistoja,
b. 15—, d.-. P. A.D. mat. c. 1578, in which
year Filippo first accepted and then declined to
paint a canvas for the festival of S. Luke [A.D., R.
26, c. 6*]. Some payments for dues, fines, etc. are
noted in the Registers of the A.D. as having been
made by Filippo in 1584-85 [id. 101, c. 77*, 79, 85].
In 1586 he was drawn as an Academician, to be a
“ festaiuolo ” for S. Luke’s Day [id. 27, c. 75].
Filippo’s brother Rinaldo, also a P., mat. May 1,
1585 [id. 56, c 85*] The brothers probably belonged
to the same family as Filippo di Lorenzo, noted
below.
15. Paladini, Filippo di Lorenzo de’. Pistoja,
b. c. 1554, d. c. 1614. P. mat. 1605 [A.D., R. 57,
c. 104]. Filippo studied the principles of art in
Florence, but appears to have been resident in and
to have exercised his profession at Pistoja, as in
the entry of his mat. he is termed P. in Pistoja, and
