About the Artist

Giovanni Di Francesco Di Piero

1425 – 1498

Italian painter, pupil of Andrea del Castagno, documented until 1498 in Florence. A few paintings formerly attributed to Giovanni di Francesco del Cervelliera, among them the so-called Carrand triptych, are now given to this painter. There is a confusion in the literature regarding the works by the two painters, both named Giovanni di Francesco.
