artist from (the village of) Cento (between Bologna and Ferrara)

You can't just say "from Cento", because no one will know where that is.
Note from asker:
thank you, that's right, just wanted confirmation
Peer comment(s):

agree Laura Bennett : Agree. I don't think you necessarily need "the village of" but specifying between Bologna and Ferrara is sensible.

Peer comment(s):

neutral Andrew Bramhall : Unlikely; an inhabitant of Cento would be a 'Centoese' pronounced Cento-ease in English, just like someone from Genoa is a 'Genoese' ("Geno-ease")
