A. Madonna and Child with Angels and
Franciscan Saints
Oil on canvas.
Formerly on the high altar of the Church of the Cappuccini outside Norcia, it
was painted in 1590-91 by Durante Alberti, a typical exponent of
“counter-reformed” art. The artist himself mentioned the “painting I’m doing
for the Capuchins in Norcia” and the payment received from a certain Messer
Cario, cloth merchant. The coat of arms at the bottom and the initials on the
painting refer to the donor and the Angelucci family, formerly called
Colangelucci. Among the saints Clare, Francis and Bonaventura can be recognized,
as well as Bishop Ludovico, without his miter. The scene in the middle
represents Norcia seen from the convent. The oriental walls with towers and the
Sordo valley in the distance can be seen.

E.
St. Peter of Alcantara,
St. Pascal Baylon and St. Emidio in Adoration of the Sacrament (upper
right)
Oil on canvas. Probably from the
suburban Church of the Annunziata. Vittorio Casale has recognized Marattesque
characteristics in the painting, which can be linked to Roman circles such as
that of Agostino Masucci (second quarter of the 18th cent.)
