Sebastiano Conca
Sebastiano Conca (1679-1764), Italian painter, was born in Gaeta and studied painting under Francesco Solimena in Naples. In 1706, he settled in Rome, where his brothers took care of him. The Pope at that time ordered him to paint the "Coronation of St. Cecilia" in the Church of Santa Cecilia in Trasteverein, which was completed in 1725.
