Description:

Museum website lists creator as "Maestro dell'Avicenna" and notes that this work has a stylistic and iconographic relationship with the frescoes on the left wall of the Bolognini Chapel in San Petronio, Bologna, painted by Giovanni da Modena between 1410 and 1445. This work was already considered a preparatory sketch (and even attributed to Giotto in older inventories), but is instead contemporary with the works in San Petronio. The "Maestro dell'Avicenna" has also been stylistically linked to some miniatures of the same date. (Source: Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna; http://www.pinacotecabologna.beniculturali.it/)
