Virgin and Child, c. 1490-1500. Creator: Pintoricchio (Italian, c. 1454-1513)

Virgin and Child, c. 1490-1500. Bernardino di Betto, called Pinturicchio, is said to have acquired his nickname (" little painter" ) because of his small stature, and used it to sign some of his paintings. Born in Perugia, the provincial capital of Umbria, he trained under local artists, eventually becoming a paid assistant of the painter Perugino. He is known to have assisted Perugino on his frescoes in the Sistine Chapel and eventually established his own reputation as a respected artist. Many of his commissions were for churches and wealthy families in Umbria and elsewhere. Though the source of this painting is unknown, it was likely produced for a home or private chapel
