Un'inedita tavola di Geronimo Rizzardo in Sicilia. Restauro e scoperta

Abstract

Study and analysis of the panel painting of the Madonna del Rosario with Dominican and Franciscan saints is kept in the church of Maria SS. del Rosario in the Parrini village, a small fraction of Partinico, in the province of Palermo. The restoration intervention allowed the discovery of an initials that reveal the author: the painter, perhaps Venetian, Geronimo Rizzardi, a mannerist artist inserted in the context of the city of Palermo at the end of the sixteenth century.
