Details

Niccolò da Foligno (Niccolò di Liberatore, erroneously called Niccolò Alunno by Vasari) was one of the grand Umbrian masters in the second half of the Quattrocento. He was probably a pupil of his father-in-law, Pietro Mazzaforte, and of Benozzo Gozzoli. The type of the languishing Madonnas and saints, which also characterizes the Umbrian school amongst other, first appears in his work (perhaps influenced by Taddeo di Bartolo). //
