SALIMBENI, Lorenzo
(b. 1374, San Severino, d. ca. 1420, San Severino)

Votive pictures

c. 1416
Fresco
Oratory of San Giovanni Battista, Urbino

The lower register of the east wall includes several votive pictures, separately framed but also painted on the wall, that must have been executed at roughly the same time as the cycle. The two pictures of the Madonna, the Madonna dell'Umiltà and Madonna with Saints, are also attributed to the Salimbeni brothers for stylistic reasons. These paintings flank a niche, producing the effect of a triptych.
