Biography

Not much is known about Bernardino Zaganelli's life except through his works. He was born in Cotignola and worked in Parma and Ravenna. His brother Francesco da Cotignola was also a painter, and he is possibly related to Girolamo Marchesi as well. He primarily painted religious-themed paintings for church commissions, sometimes working with his brother Francesco. One work executed by Bernardino Zaganelli Saint Sebastian is part of the National Gallery collection in London.[1]

One of his pupils in Ferrara was felt to be Antonio Pirri.[2]
