Cristoforo Cortese is an Early Renaissance artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Cristoforo Cortese painted delicate angels and saints in the early 1400s, using fine gold lines and soft colors. His brush brought life to the Angel with Portative Organ and the Angel with Harp, each glowing against rich backgrounds. He also shaped the portrait Saint Mark the Evangelist and Saint Sinibaldus Venerated by Members of a Lay Confraternity in 1425. Tap Angel with Harp to see how light and devotion met on the page.
