This biography from the Archives of AskART:
|  The following, submitted April 2005, is from Chris Sobotowski of Gloucester, Massachusetts.
"I have a Benedictis painting, which I had bought from an antiques dealer who had a large number of paintings from the Benedictis estate. With the painting, the dealer provided me with some biographical information, which I will quote verbatim below. The painting is a 21" x 27 1/4' pastel portrait of a semi-nude woman.
