Federico Barocci (c. 1535 Urbino-1627 Urbino), also called Baroccio Friori da Urbino, Worked as a painter, draftsman and printmaker. He studied in Urbino with his father, the sculptor ambrogio di Feerico Barocci, as well as with the painter Battista Franco and the architect Girolamo Genga (c. 1472-1552) at the court of Pesaro. In the mid-1550s, as well as from about 1560 to 1563, he worked in Rome, and from 1567 on he again resided in his native city. Varocci chiefly painted religious panels, but also some portraits. His art, stylistically placed between Mannerism and Varoque, was influenced by both Raphael and Caravaggio. Many of his Motifs, known through etchings, were widely imitated. His works include The Maryrdom of St. Sebastian, 1557, Duomo, Urbino; The Deposition from the Cross, 1569, Duomo, Perugia; and Portrait of Giuliano della Rovere, c. 1595, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna.
