Lorenzo Beci (active 1517โ€“1521) is an Italian painter of the Renaissance period, active in Cremona, region of Lombardy. His surname is also sometimes written as Becci, Berti, De Becis or De Bezy, Berci, or Bezzi.[1]

Biography

He is said to have been a pupil of Galeazzo Campi.[2] It is unclear if he is related to Zanino de Becis, also a Cremonese painter. Two paintings in oil on wood derived from a former church in Binanuova are now in the church of San Pancrazio, Gabbioneta-Binanuova.
