Description: | So far, the anonymous Master of the Glasgow Adoration to whom this work is attributed, has not been identified. Zeri (1954) connected the Adoration of the Magi with two other works: the San Lodovico da Tolosa, and the Sant' Agostino, (Bayerische Staatsgemaldesammlungen, Munich), and attributed them to an anonymous, early 16th century Neapolitan artist. In 1991, Naldi attributes several other works to the same anonymous master, now named the Master of the Glasgow Adoration. He places the works slightly earlier, emphasising influences of Pinturicchio and Arcuccio, and pointing at the extensive and refined gilded relief and pounced decoration in a vocabulary typical of late 15th century Neapolitan goldsmithing. Naldi supports a Neapolitan late 15th early 16th century attribution, and suggests that the Umbrian and Lombardian influences could have entered the artist's work through travel or through studying the works of these artists in Neapolitan churches. | Subjects: | religion (Adoration of Magi); figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Maestro dell`Adorazione di Glasgow, Master of the Glasgow Adoration (Italian artist, active early 16th century) Æ Previously attributed to manner of Foppa, Vincenzo (Italian painter, ca.1427-ca.1515) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8781... | Go to resource |
