Lo Scheggia - Storia di Susanna

Lo Scheggia (1406–1486) was an Italian painter, brother of the famous Masaccio. Born in San Giovanni in Altura, now San Giovanni Valdarno, he moved with his family to Florence in 1417. Between 1420 and 1421 he came into a relationship with Lorenzo Bicci, probably as an assistant in his workshop. In 1426 he was registered in Pisa as a guarantor for his brother Masaccio, and he refused his brother's inheritance in 1428, for the inconsistency. In 1429 the artist had his workshop in Florence in the parish of Sant'Apollinare.
