Life and work edit

Piccini was born in Venice in 1644.[2] Her father was etcher and engraver Giacomo Piccini.[3] He trained Piccini in engraving and illustration in the style of the great masters such as Peter Paul Rubens and Titian.[1] Piccini became a Franciscan nun in 1666, joining the Convent of Santa Croce. Upon joining, she changed her name to Sister Isabella.[1]

Prominent Italians commissioned works from her, including portraits and religious artworks. Giovanni Antonio Remondini distributed her prints throughout Europe.[4] All income she made was split between her convent and her family.[1]
