- Title
LA PADOVA DI PETRARCA, LA PADOVA DEI POLACCHI: IL DE VIRIS ILLUSTRIBUS E LA NUOVA CONCEZIONE DI RITRATTISTICA VIRILE.
- Authors
Lokaj, Rodney John
- Abstract
The article illustrates how visitors coming to Padua could learn about Italian humanism by studying Petrarch, not only where he had lived and what he had written but also how his legacy was represented and thus perpetuated under the direction of Petrarch's former secretary and copyist, Lombardo della Seta, particularly in the fresco by Altichiero in the Oratory of Saint George to the right of the façade of the Basilica of Saint Anthony.
