Master of the Arcimboldi Missal

( fl Milan, c. 1492). Italian illuminator. He is named after the spendidly illuminated Missal (Milan, Bib. Capitolare, MS. X.D.I.13) that bears the coat of arms and the portrait of Guidantonio Arcimboldi, Archbishop of Milan (1489–97). The manuscript was probably donated to Arcimboldi by Ludovico Sforza (‘il Moro’), Duke of Milan; the frontispiece bears a miniature of the Duke and his court during the coronation ceremony, which took place in S Ambrogio, Milan, on 26 March 1495. The Missal must therefore have been decorated after that date, and it is attributed to a Milanese artist strongly influenced by the work of Ambrogio Bergognone and Cristoforo de Predis.
