Ambrogio Borgognone (variously known as Ambrogio da Fossano, Ambrogio di Stefano da Fossano, or as il Bergognone or Ambrogio Egogni, c. 1470s – 1523/1524),

was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period active in and near Milan. The dates of his birth and death are unknown; he is said to have been born at Fossano in Piedmont and his appellation attributed to his artistic affiliation with the Burgundian school.  Borgognone is considered a modestly talented painter with marked individuality. He holds an interesting place in the most interesting period of Italian art. Bernardino Luini is said to have been one of his pupils.
