Biography
He was born in Piacenza, but active in Milan. In 1457, along with Cristoforo da Monza he made estimates for a Maesta painted by Ambrogio Zavattari for the Milan Cathedral. In 1481, he was a member of the guild of painters and active in the Cathedral and Castle. In the Museo Poldi Pezzoli, a triptych is attributed to Gottardo depicting a Virgin of the Misericordia, an Annunciation, an Adoration of the Magi, St Sebastain and a holy bishop. His son, Bernardo Scotti, painted in Cassino for the Maresciallo Trivulzio. Bernardo painted frescoes for the apse of the church of Cassino Scanasio.
