| biography:
| Painter, born in Ferrara, NE Italy. The founder and leader of the Ferrarese school, he studied under Squarcione at Padua, and his metallic, tortured forms and unusual colours give a strange power to his pictures, such as the ‘Pietà’(c.1472) in the Louvre and the ‘St Jerome’ in the National Gallery, London. |
