From this painting, initially attributed to Boccaccio Boccaccino (O. Mündler, Cavalcaselle, Morelli), Bode took the cue to establish a distinct group of works independent of Boccaccino and to posit a determined artistic personality. Among the works attributed to him, the most important are: at Bribano (a hamlet of Sedico, Belluno), S. Niccolò: *Madonna and Child with SS. Roch and Nicholas*; at Milan, Brera: *Adoration of the Magi* (no. 317); *Baptism of Christ* (in collaboration with Marco d’Oggiono, no. 318); *Madonna and Angels* (no. 789); *SS. Peter and John the Apostle*, signed *Iohès Augustinus Laudesis P.* (for Suida, this is a copy from an original by P. B.); also in Milan, Contessa del Majno Soranzo: *Head of a Young Girl*; Duke Gallarati Scotti: *Holy Martyr*; Guido Cagnola: *Madonna with an Angel*; Albertini Collection (formerly Gall. Crespi): *Madonna and Child*; Modena, Gall. Estense: *Madonna and St. Sebastian in a Landscape* (no. 490); Murano, church of S. Pietro Martire: *Madonna Enthroned with Saints*; Venice, Accademia: besides the *Washing of the Feet* already cited, *Madonna with SS. Simeon and Jerome* (no. 605) and *Christ among the Doctors* (no. 598); church of S. Stefano, sacristy: *Madonna with St. Catherine and a Donor*; church of S. Lazzaro degli Armeni: *Madonna*; Verona, Museo: *St. Martha and Mary Magdalene*. Examination of these works reveals the painter’s position between Lombardy and the Veneto, which had led to confusion with Boccaccino.
Attempts have been made to identify the anonymous painter with that Giovanni Agostino da Lodi who signed the small panel with *SS. Peter and John*, now in Brera (cited above), an opinion generally accepted. Suida, however, considers the Brera picture a replica; while leaving the question unresolved, he favors the name of Andrea di Appiano, linked by tradition to two works attributed to P.-B., preserved in Brera and coming from the Milanese church of S. Maria della Pace. Another interesting question is the attribution, in Venetian tradition, of many of our painter’s works to a “Perugino.”
