Piero della Francesca

Artists in a Nutshell

Available for over a year

The early Renaissance artist famed for his cool colour palette and geometric compositions, and whose religious works were marked by serenity and clarity. "In this extraordinary stillness, Piero has tried to make a painting that spells out a religious truth to a congregation of people who, of course, couldn't read" says art historian William Feaver.
