PAOLOVERONESE
Paolo Veronese
Paolo Veronese was an Italian painter of the Renaissance in Venice, famous for paintings such as The Wedding at Cana and The Feast in the House of Levi. He was the fifth child to a stone-cutter, or spezapreda, by the name of Gabriele. It was common for surnames to be taken from a father's profession, and thus Veronese was known as Paolo Spezapreda. He later changed his name to Caliari when he relocated to Venice. He adopted the name Paolo Cagliari or Paolo Caliari, and became known as "Veronese" from his birthplace in Verona.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Paolo Veronese
