Footnotes

Provenance
With Nicolas Aquavella, New York, 1939 (as 'Piero di Lorenzo (Compagno del Pesellino)')
Private Collection, USA

According to Raimond van Marle, in his Italian Schools of Painting, Piero di Lorenzo da Pratese worked with both Pesellino and Fra Filippo Lippi, finishing an altarpiece for the church of Santa Maria Trinita of Pistoia that had been started by Pesellino, but which he did not live to complete. One of the painters who belonged to the circle that included Pesellino and Fra Filippo Lippi was called 'Compagno del Pesellino', whom van Marle speculates may have been Piero di Lorenzo da Pratese (op. cit. p. 508). Whoever wrote the attribution in the 1939 Aquavella catalogue is combining the two, for which they may or may not have had further evidence.
