Vittore Pisano

Vittore Pisano (c. 1380-1456), commonly called Pisanello, Italian medallist, was a native of San Vigilio sul Lago in the territory of Verona.

Specimens of his work as a painter are still extant in Rome, Venice, Verona and Pistoia, and entitle him to a place of some distinction in the history of that art. The National Gallery, London possesses a very fine specimen of Pisanello's work — a panel painted with miniature-like delicacy.

During the latter portion of his life he lived in Rome, where he enjoyed great repute.

The paintings are the excellent portrayal of the events and scenes that we see around us. The painters are the best cameras of the world. They reproduce many different types of pictures. They even draw imaginary pictures that do not exist in this world. We tend to use both thinned oil paints and dense oil paints. Masterpieces can be dyed more than once, but each time it may be different from the existing paintings.h
