Life

Sebastiano Folli was born the son of Girolamo Folli. He was a member of the Compagnia di Santa Caterina in Fontebranda of the Contrada Oca (goose) and its priore from November 1599 to February 1600. From 1589 to 1594 he was probably in Rome to study in the Biblioteca Vaticana , the Palazzo Lateranense and in Santa Maria Maggiore to work for Alessandro Ottaviano de'Medici (later called Pope Leo XI ). He then returned to Siena, where he worked in the environment of the same age Ventura Salimbeni and his older half-brother Francesco Vanni and with Rutilio Manetti . The first works were documented from 1598 when he created a Gonfanon for the Compagnia del Santissimo Sacramento di Piancastagnaio and worked in Siena in the Sala del Consiglio in the Palazzo Pubblico . From 1602 he worked at the Santuario di Santa Caterina . His second trip to Rome took place in April 1605, but took place due to the sudden death of his patron Leo XI. an abrupt end. When he returned to Siena, he created four works in the Convento delle Sperandie (Monastero delle Trafisse) in the same year. The work he began in San Sebastiano in Camollia in 1603 was completed in 1608 with the fresco San Sebastiano davanti all'imperatore Diocleziano (English = St. Sebastian before Emperor Diocletian). One of his most important works is the lunettes in the Chiesa di Santa Lucia (also Chiesa dei Santi Niccolò e Lucia , Via Pian dei Mantellini ) called Gloria (also Trionfo di Santa Lucia ) in Siena, which he and his pupils Simondio Salimbeni made from 1612 to 1617 and Astolfo Petrazzi carried out. In 1614 he completed the work Madonna in gloria incoronata dal Cristo bambino circondata da Angeli e Santi (Eng. = Madonna in glory crowned by the boy Jesus and in the company of angels and saints) by Francesco Vanni († 1610) in the Chiesa del Santuccio in Siena, which were initially continued by Ventura Salimbeni († 1613).
