PENNACCHI, GIROLAMO DI PIER MARIA, born at Treviso in 1497, died in 1545. Called also Girolamo da Treviso. Probably pupil of his father, Pietro Maria Pennacchi, but early exhibited a more modern spirit. Of this period are three pictures of his in the Casa Origo, Treviso, two of which bear the name of Giorgione. Girolamo went early to Venice, and was probably in Genoa between 1528 and 1532. In 1532 he painted frescos in the Castello of Trent, and in 1533 he executed a large fresco of the Madonna, in the Church of the Commenda, Faenza. About the same time he painted several pictures also in Bologna, one of the best of which, a Madonna, is in the National Gallery, London. He returned to Venice, and about 1538 entered the service of Henry VIII. of England; in 1542 he was architect to the king, and designed a palace for him; and in 1544 he was raised to the rank of an engineer, and as such commanded the works at the siege of Boulogne, where he was killed by a cannon-shot.—C. & C., N. Italy, ii. 230; Burckhardt, 113, 192, 728; Lübke, Gesch. ital. Mal., ii. 604.

PENNACCHI, PIETRO MARIA, born at Treviso in 1464, died there in 1528. Painted first in Treviso, where he produced pictures remarkable for dryness and patient finish, one of them being so German that it has been ascribed to Albrecht Dürer. Afterwards studied in Venice, where he changed his style, wavering between imitation of Bellini and Carpaccio. In his early manner is the Christ in the Tomb, in the Berlin Museum; in his second, the Annunciation, in S. Francesco della Vigna, Venice. Still later he adopted the free system of treatment of Rondinello, examples of which are the Madonna, in S. M. della Salute, Venice, and the Assumption, in the Duomo, Treviso.—C. & C., N. Italy, ii. 227; Burckhardt, 192, 728; Lübke, Gesch. ital. Mal., ii. 604.
