Giovanni Battista Cima, called Cima da Conegliano – Venetian painter from Conegliano, established in Venice from before 1492 to 1516.  He may have studied under Alvise Vivarini, but was mainly influenced by Antonello da Messina and Giovanni Bellini.  His style changed little during his career and he not only repeated entire compositions but actually re-used the same cartoons for several works; he also ran a large studio, so that many works attributable to him are not to any great extent autograph.  His earliest dated painting is a sacra conversazione for Vicenza, 1489 (now Vicenza, Museo Civica).
