FRANCIA, Francesco
Italian High Renaissance Painter, 1450-1517
He turned to painting c. 1485, and his first works already testify to the considerable technical accomplishment and gentle religious sensibility that remained constants of his art. His major surviving paintings are altarpieces, mostly images of the Virgin and saints, initially done for Bologna and later for nearby centres, notably Parma, Modena, Ferrara and Lucca. He also painted many small-scale devotional works and a few portraits. The apochryphal anecdote reported by Vasari that Francia died on seeing Raphael's altarpiece of St Cecilia Related Paintings of FRANCIA, Francesco :. | St.Francis | Adoration of the Child sdgh | The Burial of St Cecily dfs | Madonna and Child with the Infant St John the Baptist dsh | The Marriage of St Cecily sds | Related Artists: MOSTAERT, JanDutch Northern Renaissance Painter, ca.1472-1555 Horace Aumontpainted Flowers in 1860 Bernardus Accama(1697, Burum? - 1756, Leeuwarden) was an eighteenth century Dutch historical and portrait painter, born in Friesland.
