Cavalori, Mirabello (d’Antonio di Pacino) [Mirabello di Salincorno]
(b 1535; d Florence, 27 Aug 1572). Italian painter. He was one of the founders of the Accademia del Disegno in Florence and worked on the academy’s first major projects: the decorations for Michelangelo’s funeral in S Lorenzo (1564) and for Duke Francesco I de’ Medici’s wedding (1565) to Joanna of Austria. For Michelangelo’s catafalque he collaborated with Girolamo Macchietti on a grisaille painting of Lorenzo de’ Medici Receiving Michelangelo (untraced); for the Arch of Religion, a temporary structure erected along the route of Francesco I’s wedding procession, Cavalori painted in monochrome St Francis Founding the Retreat at Vernia and Receiving the Stigmata (untraced).
