Paolo Morigia (1 January 1525 – 1604) was an Italian scholar and a Jesuate.
Biography
[edit]Paolo Morigia was born in Milan in 1525 to a wealthy and noble family.[1] At the age of seventeen he entered the order of the Jesuati, founded by Giovanni Colombini of Siena in 1360.
A prolific author, he is best remembered for his works on the history of Milan.
He died in Milan in 1604 and was buried in the church of the convent of San Girolamo, belonging to the order.
Morigia was one of Fede Galizia's earliest patrons, and in his La Nobiltà di Milano (The Nobility of Milan), a collection of short biographies of Milanese writers and artists published in 1595, he wrote that she showed signs of "becoming a truly noble painter." Galizia also made a portrait of Morigia.
