BiographyBiography: Jacobello was the son of the painter Francesco del Fiore, and one of his pupils was the famous quattrocento painter Carlo Crivelli (1430/35–1494). His father had a well-established bottega, but as yet no signed work by Francesco has been recognized, although the Master of the Giovanelli Madonna has recently been identified with him. At all events, Jacobello must have trained in this workshop, and some of his earlier paintings are considered to have been produced under the strong influence of his father. Among these we can include the Madonna of Humility, now in Stuttgart, executed around 1400, and possibly the fragmentary triptych representing the Madonna of Humility with St Augustine and St Paul, now in the Pittas Collection, dated 1400 to 1405.
