Excerpt from Exhibition of the Work of Luca Signorelli and His School, 1893Elisabetta, Sister Of Lazzaro Vasari, painter, Of Arezzo, the father Of Maestro Giorgio, the famous potter. Luca was thus first cousin to Maestro Giorgio, who was grandfather Of Giorgio Vasari and Luca's biography is one Of the most graphic in Vasaris Lives.Through the in¿uence Of his uncle Lazzaro, little Luca was sent to learn the rudiments Of his art in the workshop Of the great Umbrian painter, Pietro della Francesca, at Borgo San Sepolcro. Lazzaro died in 1452, SO Luca must have been barely 11 years Old when he set out for Pietro's school. Yet Vasari records no distinctive works by him before the frescoes in the Chapel Of Santa Barbara, in the Church of San Lorenzo at Arezzo, painted in 1472 when Luca was 31 or 32, and which he describes as le prime opere.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
