He was considered to be the illegitimate son of the patrician Andreotto del Maino.[2] He was brought up in Milan, and taught at the University of Pavia from 1471 to 1485. After a few years in Padua he returned to Pavia, where in 1507 he made a speech welcoming Louis XII of France.[3] In that year Andrea Alciato came to Pavia to study with him and others.[4][5]
