Piero della Francesca – Early Renaissance Artist

Piero della Francesca (c.1415 – 1492) was a painter of the Early Renaissance who was also known as a painter and geometer. His works are characterized by humanism, geometry and perspective. Most of his works were religious based and he is best known for the cycle of frescoes in The Legend of the True Cross in the church of San Francesco in the Tuscan town of Arezzo. Our collection of patterns contains many of his most well known pieces including several from The Legend of the True Cross, The Baptism of Christ, and several pieces from Montefeltro Altarpiece, the Diptych Portrait of Battista Sforza and Federico da Montefeltro, and the Polyptych of Saint Augustine.
