  CGFA- Bio: Sebastiano del Piombo
Shortly after completing this commission, Sebastiano settled permanently in Rome, where he became a member of Raphael's circle of artists andsoon showed himself to be a notable portraitist.
From 1519 to 1530 Sebastiano had an unparalleled reputation in Rome as a portraitist.
In 1531 Pope Clement VII bestowed upon Sebastiano the lucrative post of keeper of the papal seal (piombino is Italian for “lead seal,” hence his nickname).

Towards 1511-1512 del Piombo aided Baldassarre Peruzzi in mythologic themes for lunettes in the Sala di Galatea in the villa now-called the Farnesina.
Sebastiano directed that his burial, in the church of Santa Maria del Popolo, should be conducted without ceremony of priests, friars or lights, and that the cost thus saved should go to the poor.
Sebastiano, conscious of his deficiency in the higher sphere of invention, made himself especially celebrated as a portrait painter: the likeness of Andrea Doria, in the Doria Palace, Rome, is one of the most renowned.

Sebastiano del Piombo first went to Rome in 1511 in the entourage of Agostino Chigi.
After the unveiling of Michelangelo’s work in the Sistine chapel, Sebastiano was strongly influenced by this artist’s muscular figural conceptions and his colorism, also becoming friends with the artist.
In 1531, Sebastiano’s prestige was augmented when he was appointed to the ceremonial post of keeper of the papal seals.

 Sebastiano del Piombo - Wikipedia
Nel Ritratto di giovane donna di Budapest, del 1508 circa, se i riferimenti a Giovanni Bellini e al Giorgione consistono, rispettivamente, nello scalare i piani della rappresentazione e nell'osservazione precisa dell'epidermide, si mostra la caratteristica del Luciani: il contrappuntare gli elementi della composizione, qui mettendo in relazione gli opposti moti del braccio e della testa.
Nella primavera del 1511 "...spargendosi la fama delle virtù di Sebastiano, Agostino Chigi sanese, ricchissimo mercante, il quale in Vinegia avea molti negozii, sentendo in Roma molto lodarlo, cercò di condurlo a Roma, piacendogli oltre la pittura che sapesse così ben sonare di liuto e fosse dolce e piacevole nel conversare.
Del 1512 è il ritratto degli Uffizi chiamato Fornarina e il Ritratto del cardinale Ferry Corondolet e del suo segretario di Madrid; qui, se l'impostazione del personaggio è raffaellesca, l'atmosfera che promana dal paesaggio dorato e dalle costruzioni nel fondo è veneta.

Though he spent most of his career in Rome, Sebastiano del Piombo's art always bore the unmistakable imprint of his early Venetian training.
Sebastiano moved to Rome in 1511, where he came in contact with Raphael and his assistants working at the Villa Farnesina.
In 1531 Pope Clement VII gave Sebastiano the well-paid position of "piombo" (lead), supervising the lead seals attached to papal bulls, or letters.

Venetian painting of the first decades of the sixteenth century is illustrated here by numerous masterpieces by Titian, some of which came into the Medici collections through the inheritance brought as a dowry by Vittoria della Rovere, the last descendant of the Dukes of Urbino.
Titian's earlier period, still sensitive to the painting of Giorgione, is documented by the Portrait of the Knight of Malta, by the Portrait of a Man, known as The Sick Man, and by Flora.
Another very fine example of Venetian art of the first decade of the sixteenth century is the Death of Adonis by Sebastiano del Piombo, a work in which he reveals the influence of the teaching of Michelangelo.

Only one of these painters -- Sebastiano del Piombo, who left for Rome in 1511 -- was actually born in Venice, but most of the others studied or worked there at least temporarily.
In some measure, the look of Venetian painting, captured in the rich colors of Titian or the lyricism of Giorgione, remained an important influence on all of them.

 Pope Clement VII (Getty Museum)
Following the model that Raphael had established for papal portraits, Sebastiano del Piombo painted Pope Clement VII (Giulio de'Medici) in three-quarter length and seated in an armchair which is placed diagonally to the picture plane.
In a letter dated July 22, 1531, Sebastiano told Michelangelo that Pope Clement had visited his studio to see a new portrait of himself painted on canvas.
Sebastiano had begun painting on stone around 1530 and had come to favor it for some important commissions because stone lasted longer than canvas or wood.

 Biografía - Sebastiano del Piombo. Sebastiano Luciani
Sebastiano del Piombo fue un pintor veneciano, autor que trabajó durante el Renacimiento italiano, y que tuvo gran repercusión sobre la pintura española a través de los cuadros que llegaban por los puertos del Mediterráneo a las colecciones reales españolas.
Del Piombo es un sobrenombre que le viene a Luciani de su trabajo como guardián de los sellos papales, un alto honor que se le concedió tras una vida plagada de éxitos.
Conoció a Rafael e intimó con Miguel Angel, bajo cuya influencia se operó una transformación en su estilo dulce y sensual hacia la grandiosidad pétrea miguelangelesca.
