This painter worked in the decades around 1350, leaving behind large altarpieces meant for churches. One surviving panel shows the Entombment of Mary, its heavy folds of fabric and quiet grief typical of the period. The work was probably made to hang in a Franciscan church somewhere in central Italy, where scenes of the Virgin’s last moments were popular. Look for the way every face is turned inward, the light stays low, and the gold background keeps your eye on the story. Next, tap to explore the scene in Entombment of Mary up close.
