Tommaso Garelli is documented in Bologna in 1450 as 'magister pictor', and in 1458 completed a tabernacle in the church of San Michele in Bosco. He had a personal and artistic relationship with Marco Zoppo that can be traced to the first half of the 1460s, following which he progressively opened his style to the models of the Veneto.


We are grateful to both Mauro Minardi and Giacomo Alberto Calogero for proposing the attribution of this panel to Tommaso Garelli.
