PAOLO DA VISSO

(b. ~1415 Visso, d. ~1481 ?)

Italian late Gothic painter from Visso, in the Italian region Marche. Active between 1437 and 1481, he is the most important artistic personality of the territory. Several works by him are known scattered in Marche and Umbria, but only one bears his signature, the Madonna Enthroned with the Child, made for the church Santa Maria dell’Oro a Terni (now in the Musée du Petit Palais, Avignon).

In 1455, the artist opened his own workshop in Visso, after learning from a master in Umbria.
