Artist
Italian 12th Century
1175–1199
Italian 12th Century was an artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Art.
These tiny 12th-century paintings show saints in delicate color on thin animal skin, made for private prayer books. This artist left only two book-page miniatures: Saint Luke in his red robe holding a quill, and Saint Mark wrapped in gold-edged blue. Every brush-stroke fits a world where every figure mattered. Tap Saint Luke to step inside a medieval handwritten gospel where these pictures once lived.
