Francesco da Volterra

Illustration — Madonna and saints, Pietrasanta Francesco da Volterra was an Italian painter and architect. He resided in Pisa from 1370 to 1372, where, from the records of the Campo Santo, he painted the History of Job on the south wall. Like the rest of the earlier pictures in the Campo Santo, it is now almost obliterated, but some idea of its weird realism may still be formed from Lasinio's Pitture del Campo Santo and other reproductions in Italian books on art.
