Bernardino Licinio (c. 1489–1565) was an Italian High Renaissance painter of Venice & Lombardy. Bernardino Licinio painted both secular portraits & religious works. He was born in Bergamo in Lombardy. Some speculate that he may have trained in the studio of Giovanni Bellini (1430 -1516). As his work changed over time, his paintings indicate that Licinio stayed close to the the most recent artistic developments of the Venetian school of painting. Bernardino Licinio was part of an artistic family, going on to train his nephew Giulio Licino (1527–1584). Bernardino’s brother, Arrigo (Giulio’s father) was also a painter, as was another brother, Fabio.
