Giovanni Pietro da Birago

Giovanni Pietro da Birago belongs to the Italian Renaissance tradition of engraving, a printmaker whose surviving sheets centre on religious narrative subjects. The archive holds a single work by this hand, an engraving of The Last Supper, with a Spaniel, dated to the year 1500. That lone impression represents the entirety of the artist's presence here, so the collection's view of his output is narrow rather than representative.
