  Federigo Zuccaro
Federigo attained an eminence far beyond his very limited merits as a painter, and was perhaps the most popular artist of his generation.
Federigo's first work of this sort was the completion of the painting of the dome of Florence's cathedral; the work had been begun by the art-historian Vasari, who wrote in the most generous language about his more successful rival.
Federigo was recalled to Rome by Pope Gregory XIII to continue in the Pauline chapel of the Vatican the scheme of decoration begun by Michelangelo during his failing years, but a quarrel between the painter and members of the papal court led to his departure from Italy.
