to Vasari, with Signorelli and Perugino. His later pictures, as, for instance, a Madonna with Saints and Angels, in the Collegiate church at Castiglione Fiorentino, display little power, though they show that he had learned to imitate Signorelli.—C. & C., Italy, iii. 36; Vasari, ed. Le Mon., v. 44; Marchesi, 2d ed., i. 203.

GATTI, BERNARDO (Bernardino), born at Cremona about 1490 (?), died in 1575. Lombard school; called Il Sojaro or Sogliaro (the cooper) from his father's trade. Went early to Parma to study under Correggio, and became his ablest pupil. He left numerous works in Parma, Piacenza, and Cremona. In S. M. di Campagna, Piacenza, he painted a fresco, St. George and the Dragon, in competition with Pordenone's St. Augustine, and on the death of that painter was selected to finish his frescos of the Life of the Madonna, in the tribune of the church. Lanzi praises his Miracle of the Loaves and Fishes, in the refectory of the Padri Lateranensi, Cremona; it is dated 1552. He afterwards (about 1560) painted the cupola in the Madonna della Steccata, Parma. His Assumption of the Virgin, in the Cathedral of Cremona, his last work, is said to have been painted with his left hand, his right having been paralyzed. An Ecce Homo, and a Crucifixion, are in the Naples Museum.—Vasari, ed. Mil., vi. 493; Lanzi, ii. 400; Ch. Blanc, École lombarde; Vidoni, Pittura Cremonese; Burckhardt, 701, 738; Lavice, 206; Lanzi (Roscoe), ii. 400, 430.

GATTI, GERVASIO, Lombard school (1578-1631). Nephew and pupil of Bernardo Gatti, from whom he inherited his surname of Il Sojaro. Studied also works of Correggio, and painted some pictures with much success; but he had a deplorable facility of execution, and his works are very unequal. Lanzi conjectures that Uriel Gatti, also called Il Sojaro, was his brother.—Lanzi, ii. 431; Ch. Blanc, École lombarde.
