Ceccarini, Sebastiano
(b Fano, 17 May 1703; d Fano, 26 Aug 1783). Italian painter. Aged 14, he entered the studio of Francesco Mancini, collaborating with him at Foligno, Rome and Perugia. From 1724, when he followed Mancini to Rome, his movements are documented. His first stay in the city, which coincided with a long period of study, ended in 1729, but he was again in Rome from 1731 to 1735 and from 1744 to 1754, after travelling to Pesaro, Urbino, Perugia, Bologna, Venice and Florence. From 1755 he alternated long periods in Fano, where he remained active into old age, with short stays in Rome.
