Annunziata (P.3<\/a>) calls him only \u201cGiovanni Batista dipintore,\u201d but this is in a sequence of documents where he is elsewhere called \u201cGiovanni Batista di Jacopo\u201d and \u201cGiovanni Batista decto el Rosso dipintore.\u201d\u00a0 Hence it is not absolutely certain that the assistant to Feltrini is Rosso Fiorentino.\u00a0 Five days later a \u201cGiovanni Batista dipintore\u201d was also paid to assist Baccio da Montelupo at the Annunziata (L.6<\/a>).\u00a0 However, Franklin pointed out that no other artist with the name Giovanni Battista appears in the Annunziata documents, making it likely that Rosso is the assistant in both these documents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1513 SS.
