Bartolomeo Passarotti (1529–1592)

• Was an Italian painter of the mannerist period.
• He worked mainly in his native Bologna.
• His family name is also spelled Passerotti or Passarotto.
• From approximately 1550 to 1555, he lived in Rome, where he worked under Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola and Taddeo Zuccari.
Annibale Carracci (whose brother Agostino studied with Passerotti) was influenced by Passerotti's genre scenes in a select set of paintings (such as The Beaneater and The Butcher's Shop, the latter being originally attributed to Passerotti).
• Lucio Massari and Francesco Brizzi were among his pupils.
• Three of Passerotti's sons, including Ventura, Aurelio and Tiburzio, were painters.
