Master of the Year 1515

Italian

Master of the Year 1515 is an Italian Renaissance artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Cleveland Museum of Art.

This anonymous Italian painter made dramatic, muscular scenes straight from ancient myths. Look at Hercules and Antaeus—Hercules lifts the giant high to break his power—and Battle in a Wood, where armored fighters clash among twisting trees. Their style feels like a bridge between 1400s Florence and the bigger changes coming by the 1520s. Want to see more crowded fights and classical stories? Tap Battle in a Wood to step inside the chaos.
