Note 66 — Chapter VI · THE GOLDEN AGE RAPHAEL AND MICHELANGELO
Reading edition
Pietro Perugino. Venturi, Storia, Vol. VII, pt. 2, ch. v, makes Perugino the direct pupil of Piero della Francesca, ascribing to Perugino many pictures formerly ascribed to Fiorenzo di Lorenzo. The view while attractive is not wholly convincing to me. All of Perugino’s works are published in Klassiker der Kunst, No. XXV, Stuttgart, 1914. The best general estimate of Perugino is that of Wölfflin and of Berenson, in Central Italian Painters.
