| biography:
| Painter, born in Milan, N Italy. He was one of the few 20th-c artists to put into practice the technical methods of the old masters. His most usual medium was tempera, although there are frescoes by him in the Convent of S Marco at Florence (executed in 1937). His Renaissance manner is shown at its best in his portraits, such as those of Queen Elizabeth II (1955, 1970) and President Kennedy (1961). |
