Giacobbe Giusti, OLIVUCCIO di CICCARELLO: The Madonna of Humility with the Temptation of Eve
Giacobbe Giusti, OLIVUCCIO di CICCARELLO
Olivuccio Ceccarello di Ciccarello (died 1439) was an Italian painter. Little is known of his life. He was a native of Camerino and was active from 1388 until his death. In 2002 works formerly attributed to an obscure painter named Carlo da Camerino were re-attributed to Olivuccio di Ciccarello as it had become clear Carlo da Camerino had never existed.[1]
He worked at Ancona, where he was the most important painter of the gothic painting school.
Works
His works have undergone a remarkable dispersion, and are now exhibited in museums in various countries: in Italy: (Ancona, Macerata Feltria, Urbino, Rome, Bergamo and Milan), in other European countries » (Strasbourg, Cambridge, Stockholm, Zagreb) and in America: (Baltimore, Cleveland, Santiago).
