GIOVANNI DA UDINE, born in Udine, Oct. 15, 1487, died in Rome in 1564. Umbrian school. Real name Giovanni de' Recamatori, son of Francesco de' Recamatori (of the Embroiderers). Pupil of Giorgione, but afterwards of Raphael, under whom he superintended the ornamental decorations in the Vatican Loggie, such as animals, birds, fruit, flowers, and grotesques. His arabesques have ever since been considered models of their type. In 1527, when Rome was sacked by the Constable de Bourbon, he went to Florence and painted for the Medici; worked also in Udine, Venice, and in other cities, but finally returned to Rome about 1550. Most of his works are mural decorations. Among the easel pictures attributed to him are: Christ among the Doctors, Holy Family, Venice Academy; Madonna and Saints, Palazzo Manfrini, Venice; do., Museo Civico, ib. The only authenticated work of this kind is a Madonna Enthroned (1517), belonging to Signor Frizzoni, Bergamo.—Ch. Blanc, École ombrienne; Vasari, ed. Mil., vi. 549; ed.
