John Dilworth
CERIN, Marco Antonio Born 1774, died 1810 Venice Italy. Pupil of Anselmo Bellosio from around 1785. Attained guild membership in his own right in 1799 with a shop beneath the Torre dei Mori (Torre dell’Orologio) in Piazza San Marco. Influence of Bellosio strongly evident in some very graceful works with rich red-brown varnish, high arch, and elongated corners. Later work is less harmonious, with a stronger debt to Gofriller: stiff unfluted Stradivarian ‘f’s and thinner varnish.
