Her book, Late Gothic Sculpture in Northern Italy: Andrea da Giona and I Maestri Caronesi: An Addition to the Pantheon of Venetian Sculptors, explores the sculpture dispersed throughout Northern Italy in the second quarter of the fifteenth century by masters from the shores of Lake Lugano and identifies Andrea da Giona as the elusive author of Venice’s preeminent sculpture at the intersection of Gothic and Renaissance art, the Mascoli Altarpiece in San Marco.
