Sano di Pietro
Sano di Pietro
1405-1481
Ansano di Pietro di Mencio. Sienese School. Born 1406; died 1481. He was a pupil and follower of Sassetta and he collaborated on occasion with Vecchietta and with Giovanni di Paolo. His style in the last forty years of his life is well known from documented paintings and numerous others that are almost duplicates of documented ones; for his productivity in those years was remarkable, and equally remarkable was the uniformity of his style. His career becomes more interesting if we accept the attribution to him in an earlier period, c. 1430-40, of paintings formerly thought to belong to a Gothic phase of Sassetta and given by some critics to a so-called Master of the Osservanza.(1) References: (1) For a discussion of this problem see footnote 7 to K1568 (Italian Paintings XIII – XV Century, Sassetta and assistant, p. 143).
