Leonardo Corona

Leonardo Corona (1561 - 1605) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period, active mainly in Venice. Born in Murano. For the church of Santi Giovanni e Paolo (Venice), he painted an "Annunciation"; while for San Stefano, he painted an "Assumption". He is said to have been a pupil of the elder Titian, and completed some of his canvases after the master's death. His pupils included Santo Peranda and Baldasarre Anna.
