Master Of The Pietà

Italian painter, active in Siena. Millard Meiss in his 1946 publication assembled a group of seven paintings, ascribing them to the same anonymous hand and giving an eighth to his workshop. The group included two panels portraying the Pietà: one in the Musée du Petit Palais, Avignon and the other in the Institute of Arts, Detroit; then the earliest known Sienese treatments of the subject, their author was thus christened the "Master of the Pietà.
