Badile.

Italian family of artists. At least six generations of artists, mostly painters, were active in Verona. The earliest recorded member of the family is the painter Niccolò Badile (d before 1393); the exact relationship between him and Antonio Badile I (d before 1409), the father of (1) Giovanni Badile, is unclear. Giovanni had at least three sons who were painters: Antonio Badile II ( fl 1424–1507), Bartolomeo Badile I ( fl 1445–51) and Pietro Paolo Badile II ( fl 1446–76). One of Bartolomeo I’s sons became an artist, Antonio Badile III ( fl 1492), as did three of Antonio II’s sons: Bartolomeo Badile II ( fl 1464–1544), Girolamo Badile ( fl 1465–1531) and Francesco Badile I ( fl 1476–1544). Francesco Badile II ( fl 1505–57) was the son of Bartolomeo II, and (2) Antonio Badile IV was the son of Girolamo. Among the last recorded artists in the family was the 16th-century painter Angelo Badile, presumably either the son or nephew of Antonio IV.
