Painter of Lombardy, c. 1489 - 1534

I have tried my hardest to obtain his portrait, but without any success since he never painted it himself and, as he always lived apart, he was never portrayed by any other artist.
The Venus at the head of each page is taken from The School of Love in the National Gallery, London.
