Life

Francesco Cherubini was born in

Giovanni Battista Pamphilj,[1] and followed the Pamphilj in his Nunciature in Naples (1621–1625) and in Spain (1626–1630). In March 1643 he was made Referendary of the Tribunals of the Apostolic Signature of Justice and of Grace,[2]

A turning point in the life of Francesco Cherubini was the elevation of Giovanni Battista Pamphilj to the papacy as Pope Innocent X in September 1644: he continues to collaborate and to stay near the pope.[1]

On 7 October 1647 Pope Innocent X appointed him

Papal conclave, 1655.[3]

A few months after that conclave, the new pope

episcopal consecration followed on 8 August 1655 in the Roman Church of Church of the Gesù by the hands of Cardinal Marco Antonio Franciotti.[3]

Moved to Senigallia, Francesco Cherubini died some months later, on 24 April 1656. He was buried in the church of S. Croce of "Quattro Colonne", in his native town, Montalboddo.[2]
