The National Gallery hosts the first major exhibition of Francesco Pesellino, an overlooked Renaissance great.

Esteemed by the Medici family, patrons of Italian Renaissance art, his work has been under-recognised for centuries due to his early death at 35 and challenges in work attribution. 

The exhibition, featuring Pesellino’s masterpieces like the Pistoia Trinity altarpiece and the newly restored ‘Stories of David’ cassone panels, finally shines a light on this historical talent. 

Discover Pesellino’s mastery for storytelling through each exquisite painting.

Tickets are free, however booking is advised!
