ZELOTTI, GIAMBATTISTA, born in Verona about 1532, died about 1592. Venetian school; educated in the school of Antonio Badile, where he was a fellow-pupil and friend of Paolo Veronese. Called by Vasari, Battista Farinato, whence some have supposed him of kin to Paolo Farinato. Vasari also numbers him among the pupils of Titian. He was a man of genius, full of ideas and of imagination, and a worthy rival of Paolo Veronese, with whom he worked much in collaboration, especially in fresco painting, in which he excelled; but he was without ambition or confidence in himself, and died obscure and miserable. Among his frescos, those in the Palazzo Ducale, which have been attributed to Paolo Veronese, and those in the Library of St. Mark are the best. Of his pictures in oil, The Conversion of St. Paul, and the Miraculous Draught of Fishes, Vicenza, Duomo, are much admired.—Ch. Blanc, École vénitienne; Vasari, ed.
