Carolino da Viterbo (active mid 1400s),

was an Italian painter. The painter is known thanks to an inscription on a panel, preserved in the Diocesan Museum of Orte. The inscription says: "MCCCC Carolinus de Viterbo pinxit LXXVIII". From this we can deduce that the painter was originally from Viterbo and that he was active around 1478. The stylistic analysis of Orte 's panel shows great affinity with late Gothic painting which found application in Rome locally around 1450. So it is assumed that Carolino da Viterbo spent a period of apprenticeship in Rome. In his only signed and dated panel Carolino da Viterbo paints four figures with oval faces and wide cheeks with little articulated expressiveness. While the physique of the figures is generally proportionate, the hands are stretched instead. Three-dimensionality does not develop in the representation of the throne.
