Biography
Vincenzo Bandello came from Lombardy and joined the observant branch of the Dominican Order.[1] He became the prior of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan.[1] It was rumored that he was the model for Judas Iscariot in The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci.[1]
A General Chapter of the Dominican Order elected him master in 1501.[1] As master, he founded the observant Congregations of Ragusa in 1501 and Ireland in 1505.[1] His overall policy was to attempt to incorporate the observants into the general administration of the various provinces; for example, the Spanish observants were merged into the Province of Spain in 1505.[1] He discouraged the cult of Girolamo Savonarola (a former pupil), though he did not suppress the Congregation of San Marco founded by Savonarola.[1] In 1506, he issued a new version of the Dominican Constitutions.[1]
