Description: | This panel is the right wing of a former triptych. Together with the left wing, it was purchased on the Continent by Viscountess Galway in the mid-nineteenth century. Like many of her contemporaries, the Viscountess was fascinated by medieval and early Renaissance Italian paintings, and this was one of many early works which hung in her home, Selby Hall, near Bawtry, in Nottinghamshire. Like many early paintings, in the nineteenth century these panels were attributed to an artist associated with the trecento painter Giotto. They are now thought to have been painted by Spinello Aretino. | Subjects: | figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Spinello Aretino (Italian painter, born 1350-1352, died 1410) Æ Previously attributed to school of Giotto (Italian painter and architect, born 1266 or 1267, died 1337) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8525... | Go to resource |
