Lo Spagna
Spanish, 1450–1528
Lo Spagna was a Spanish Mannerism painter. 4 works are cataloged here, principally at Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya, most of them tempera paintings. Lo Spagna was born in Perugia.
Lo Spagna (died c. 1529), "the Spaniard" in Italian, was a painter of the Renaissance, active in central Italy. His name was Giovanni di Pietro, but he was known as Lo Spagna because he was of Spanish heritage. He was an important assistant and follower of the Umbrian painter Perugino, whose style his paintings developed. He should not be confused with Pietro di Giovanni D'Ambrogio of Siena.
