Part of that nobility considered "old", he was elected to the dogal title on 20 November 1589, the thirty-second in biennial succession and the seventy-seventh in history. Negrone ended his mandate on November 15, 1591 preferring to take care of his financial activities rather than a subsequent political career or post-state government. Battista Negrone died in Genoa in January 1592.[1][2]
