The strictly religious Bernardino Luini is a painter from northern Italy, of whom not much is known. In the city of Milan, which was already considered a stronghold of Italian culture in Luini's time, many of the artist's works can be found. Many of his frescoes can be seen there in chapels, churches, monasteries and city buildings. Luini himself was born in Dumenza in the Lombardy region at the end of the 15th century. There he celebrated his first successes and was a respected colleague of the Lombard painters. He is said to have completed his artistic education at the Milan School of Painting. Art historians appreciate the painter Ambrogio Bergognone was his teacher. What has been confirmed, however, is that Luini was instructed in the fine arts by his most prominent contemporary, among others: Leonardo da Vinci.
Luini and his friend and fellow student Giovanni Antonio Boltraffio were both successful and ambitious students whom Leonardo took under his wing. Some of the works Luini and Boltraffio produced were signed in Leonardo's name. This sounds unimaginable for today's conditions, was at that time an absolutely legitimate and common procedure. The relationship between the well-known master artist and the apprentice Luini was no exception. Luini is said to have worked for several years as an assistant in Da Vinci's studio before he made his own name as a remarkable fresco painter. Most of Luini's documented works were for the Old Convent of St. Maurice of Milan. His frescoes in the Villa Pelucca in Sesto San Giovanni and in the church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli in Saronno are also of unequal beauty. His patron and client was the rich Count Giovanni Bentivoglio.
Besides the monumental fresco paintings, Luini also did oil paintings. These include "Madonna in front of the rose hedge". The painting shows the Madonna's face with narrowed eyes, which Luine usually gave to his female figures. "Herodias", an oil painting probably painted between 1527 and 1531 and attributed for centuries to Leonardo da Vinci, was rightly given Luini's authorship in 1793. It has been in the Uffizi since then. This classical painting is surrounded by a feeling of pathos and suffering, which is also evident in his frescoes.
