United States of America Pietro Perugino Stamp
Posted by Andy L. on
Pietro Perugino (1446-1523), the originator of the pious look and the very 1st to edify it deliberately in his paintings, was one of two great Umbrian masters noted for large airy compositions and golden color with exquisite sense of reverie and ecstasy. A sample of his work is shown on the U.S.A. Christmas stamp of 1986.
