Michele Rocca’s date of birth was provided by Pio, who also wrote that in 1682 Rocca journeyed to Rome, where he was a pupil of Ciro Ferri, returning for further study to Parma, where he concentrated on pictures by Correggio.
He was documented as being in Parma in 1687 but had returned to Rome by 1695, when he executed the altar of St Francis Receiving the Stigmata for San Paolino alla Regola (in situ). In 1698 he received payment for an altarpiece of the Penitent Magdalene (showing 500 of 3415 characters). |
