- Signorelli, Luca (d'Egidio di Ventura de')
-
or Luca da Cortona
born 1445/50, Cortona, Republic of Florence
died Oct. 16, 1523, Cortona
Italian painter.
Highly influenced by the Florentine artists, he was probably a student of
Piero della Francesca. He went to Rome с 1483, where he produced the
Testament of Moses fresco in the Sistine Chapel. The dramatic action and depiction of great muscular effort in this and similar Renaissance works mark him as essentially a Florentine naturalist. His masterpiece, the
End of the World and
Last Judgment frescoes in Orvieto Cathedral, with their many muscular nudes, greatly influenced
Michelangelo.
