Biography
Like the dogates of his predecessors, the doge Lomellini, the twenty-third since the biennial reform and the sixty-eighth in republican history, also had to face the new noble contrasts that animated the streets of the Genoese capital. At the beginning of the mandate, the annals testify to a wide contrast with Matteo Senarega, esteemed and powerful chancellor of the Republic, and future doge in the two-year period 1595-1597, because of Lomellini's claims to sign the letters on an equal footing with foreign principles, protocol not provided instead in the Genoese order.[1][2]
More fortunate and important political strategy was the submission of Corsica after the independence and anti-Genoese unrest started by the leader Sampiero Corso; it was the same son of Sampiero, Alfonso, returning from France to negotiate the surrender with the Republic.[1]
After his mandate ended, Giannotto Lomellini died in Genoa in 1574 and was buried in a chapel at the bottom of the right nave of the Church of the Santissima Annunziata in Sturla.[1]
