Giovanni Soncini

Giovanni Soncini

Giovanni Soncini was a painter from Reggio Emilia, Italy, who was active in Parma during the Renaissance.Vaccaro, Mary. "Artists as godfathers: Parmigianino and Correggio in the baptismal registers of Parma." "Renaissance Studies" 21 (3), 366–376.] It is likely that he was a pupil of Bernardino Zacchetti from Reggio. Soncini was the godfather of Correggio's second daughter.

According to Mary Vaccaro, writing in the journal "Renaissance Studies", Soncini was a "minor painter" who has been "largely, and perhaps deservedly, forgotten in the history of art". There is only one known signed picture by Soncini.
