Girolamo da Santacroce was born in Bergamo, Italy. He became in Venice a pupil of the painter Gentile Bellini. On Gentile's death in 1507, Santacroce was left in Gentile's will half of the Oriental drawings made be Gentile. Santacroce then most likely worked as an assistant in the workshops of Giovanni Bellini and Cima da Conegliano. • Illustration — Adoration of the Three Kings, circa 1525–1530 He was a prolific artist and many of his works are signed and dated. He produced many copies after the works of the leading Venetian masters. His work shows the influence of Titian and Palma Vecchio. He is represented at the Musei Civici of Vicenza by a Madonna con il Bambino tra i santi Cosma e Damiano(?) It is unclear if he is related to a sculptor named Girolamo Santacroce in Naples.
