Self-Portrait – Pietro Perugino<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Pietro Perugino 1446-1523 (Umbria)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Pietro Vannucci, nicknamed Perugino from Perugia, the chief city of Umbria of which he was born (Citt\u00e0 della Pieve Umbria, Italy), was a divine Italian Renaissance painter of the Umbria school. His artistic skill held equal to that of Leonardo da Vinci but unfortunately did not receive the same level of recognition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perugino was one of the earliest Italian oil painters and was apprenticed (at the early age of nine) to the local artistic workshops of Perugia. He later apprenticed to the workshop of Andrea del Verrocchio alongside his contemporary da Vinci. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most well-known pupil he taught and influenced was Raphael who\u2019s early works of calm beauty owe much to Perugino.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Perugino was regarded as one of the leading painters in Florence in the 1480s and as the “best master in Italy” in 1500, but soon afterward his reputation suffered. He had been criticized by artists in Florence for his repetition and mannerisms of figures and at times whole figures in his work. Even Michelangelo had called him a lousy artist. But Peruginos response was as serene as his paintings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201cThe figures you find so bad now you used to praise. What can I do about it?\u201d<\/p>-Perugino<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

     In 1481 he was summoned to Rome where, along with others, he worked on the frescos for the walls of the Sistine Chapel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Perugino tragically died of the plague in 1523. He produced a considerable body of work in his lifetime and influenced many of his contemporaries and pupils. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Calm serene and graceful are the works of Pietro Perugino and seen in his array of beautiful figures and delicate landscapes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In this scene of tranquillity, one can notice the beautiful landscapes that extend out, repetition of curving forms, and figures that meditate on the death of Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
