Giulio Romano (US: , Italian: ['d?u?ljo ro'ma?no]; c.?1499 – 1 November 1546), also known by his real name of Giulio Pippi, was an Italian painter and architect.
A pupil of Raphael, his stylistic deviations from high Renaissance classicism help define the 16th-century style known as Mannerism.
Giulio's drawings have long been treasured by collectors; contemporary prints of them engraved by Marcantonio Raimondi were a significant contribution to the spread of 16th-century Italian style throughout Europe.
