Attributed to Andrea del Sarto

1486-1530

Andrea d’Agnolo, called del Sarto from his father’s trade as tailor. Florentine School. Born 1486; died 1530. Vasari says he was a pupil of Piero di Cosimo, but the Anonimo Magliabecchiano's assignment of the teacher role to Raffaellino del Garbo has recently been convincingly defended. For a few years, possibly from 1506, Andrea was in partnership with Franciabigio. He was influenced by Raphael and Leonardo and by Fra Bartolommeo and Michelangelo. He was active in Florence and briefly (1518-19) at the court of Francis I at Fontainebleau.
