          Biography

          Formation

          The painter's origins are humble: he was born in Ferrara, the son of a shoemaker named Domenico.

          There is no news on his apprenticeship, which Vasari linked to the mysterious artist Galasso Ferrarese, an almost mythical figure, linked by friendship to Piero della Francesca.

          The first documents concerning him are dated to the two-year period 1451–1452, when he decorated some objects for the Este court, such as some flags with Este coats of arms for the Castle or a helmet given as a prize to the winner of a tournament.

          These works were the order of the day in the artistic workshops and represented for them one of the major sources of livelihood. Perhaps he was able to work among the court illuminators
