"Pintoricchio" by Evelyn March Phillipps is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the life and works of Bernardino Pintoricchio, a lesser-known painter of the Italian Renaissance, who created a significant body of work that has been largely overlooked by art historians. Through an exploration of his biography and artistic influences, the author aims to shed light on Pintoricchio's unique charm and contribution to Umbrian painting
during the Renaissance. The opening of the work begins with a biographical overview of Pintoricchio, highlighting his birth in Perugia around 1454 and his early submission to the artistic world, which was shaped by the influences of miniaturists of the time. March Phillipps discusses the sparse historical references and critiques Pintoricchio has received, indicating that, while he may not be ranked among the great masters, his art possesses a distinct charm that merits further exploration. The text hints at his relationships with major artists and patrons, setting the stage for a detailed examination of Pintoricchio's oeuvre and his place within the Renaissance art movement.
