Biography
Ridolfi was born in Verona to a noble family.[2] He was active mainly in Rome and Urbino where he was a pupil of the painters Dario Pozzo and Paolo Veronese.[3][4] Simone Cantarini, Girolamo Cialdieri, Benedetto Marini, and two painters named Patanazzi and Urbinelli were pupils or followers of Ridolfi.[2]
Despite being unable to find employment as a painter, he lived a comfortable life and enjoyed painting.[1][3] While in Urbino he married a noblewoman and established himself in Corinaldo.[3] He died in 1644 aged 84 years old.[2]
