Per una storia delle committenze dei Pallavicino di Cortemaggiore (1479-1585)
This work aims to study the architectural and artistic patronage of the small Signoria of the Pallavicino of Cortemaggiore, a city founded by a collateral branch of the lombard family in 1479. The case study was known but little studied in critical way. The first part of the research was dedicated to the reconstruction of the familiar history, made possible by the documents found in the archives. The testament of the Marquis Rolando II Pallavicino (died in 1509) provided useful information to understand the social, political and cultural background of the family. Thanks to the documents, was possible to reconstruct the original urban layout and the residences of the Pallavicino, the fortress and the marquis palace built by the architect and master builder from Cremona Bernardino de Lera. It has also proposed a reconstruction of the palace’s interiors. The last part of the research is dedicated to the study of the Pallavicino funerary chapel in the Santissima Annunziata church of Cortemaggiore, annexed to the convent of the Friars Minor Observant, which the Pallavicino started in 1486. In the chapel were placed two marble monuments maybe made by the lombard sculptor Giovan Pietro da Rho (1464 c.-1513c.) and his workshop, active in Cremona between the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century. The last investigated topic was the painted decoration of the chapel by the Friulian artist Giovanni Antonio da Pordenone (1483-1539), with a new interpretation about this patronage and the artistic evolution of the painter during the third decade of the XVI century
