About the author

Maud Cruttwell was a British art historian. Public information about her dates of birth and death and her education is limited, and the library currently holds only one of her works. She focused on Italian Renaissance painting, and her representative work, Luca Signorelli, is a dedicated study of the life and paintings of this Renaissance artist. She also wrote a guide to Florentine painting. Judging from her extant works, her writing combines specialized study with accessible, guide-like narration, attending to individual paintings and the urban artistic environment in order to introduce painters and schools, and offering English-language readers a useful reference for understanding Signorelli and the tradition of Florentine painting.
