Andrea di Niccolò

The art scholar Bernard Berenson noted Andrea was a pupil of Vecchietta, and demonstrated influences of Matteo di Giovanni and Pietro Perugino.

One of his most famous works is in the parish church of Santa Maria Assunta (Assumption of Mary) in the small village of Casole d'Elsa near Siena.

In the upper part, he portrayed Massacre of the Innocents, clearly inspired by the work of Matteo di Giovanni, and in the middle of the Madonna with Child and Saints.

Similar series depicting allegorical figures symbolizing the human virtues, in the second half of the 15th century became very popular.

The last work of the artist were the frescoes in the church of Santa Maria and Pyantasala in a small town Kashyano di Muro at Siena, started in 1514.
