Leonardo Corona (1561–1605) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period, active mainly in Venice. Born in Murano. For the church of Santi Giovanni e Paolo in Venice, he painted an Annunciation; while for Santo Stefano, he painted an Assumption. For San Giovanni in Bragora he painted a Coronation with Thorns and a Flagellation.[1] He is said to have been a pupil of the elder Titian, and completed some of his canvases after the master's death. His pupils included Santo Peranda and Baldasarre Anna.
