Madonna and Child with Saints
Lorenzo di Credi was an Italian painter and sculptor. He first influenced Leonardo da Vinci and then was greatly influenced by him. Born in Florence, he started to work in Andrea del Verrocchio's workshop. After the death of his master, he inherited the direction of the workshop.
Portrait of Perugino, 1504
One of di Credi's works gained attention when scholars pointed out a resemblance between the face of Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci and the face of Caterina Sforza in a portrait by Lorenzo di Credi. Caterina Sforza was the Lady of Forlì and Imola (in Italy), later prisoner of Cesare Borgia. The portrait, known also as La dama dei gelsomini, is now in the Museum of Forlì. Among his pupils were Giovanni Antonio Sogliani and Antonio del Ceraiolo.
