SALVIATI, Cecchino del
(b. 1510, Firenze, d. 1563, Roma)

St Andrew

1550
Fresco
Oratorio di San Giovanni Decollato, Rome

Salviati painted the figure of St Andrew to the left of Jacopino del Conte's altarpiece in the oratory. At the time he painted the two figures flanking the altarpiece, Salviati was above all interested in bulky individual figures reflecting his admiration for Michelangelo.
