Death of St Petronilla
by PIGNONI, Simone, Oil on canvas, 141 x 114 cm
While best known for his paintings of voluptuous female nudes, Pignoni also completed many religious works; the altarpiece “St. Louis Providing a Banquet for the Poor” for the Guicciardini Chapel in S. Felicita, Florence, is perhaps the notable example and was his last public commission.
