Pierre Spicre (c. 1435-1440 - 1470-1478) 

• Was a French painter in the Duchy of Burgundy.
• Spicre is thought to have been born between 1435 and 1440.
• Is presumed to have been the son of Guillaume Spicre.
• The first mention of Pierre Spicre is in 1470, to judge the finished tomb of John the Fearless and Margaret of Bavaria in Champmol.
• He painted a retable for the Lausanne Cathedral in 1473, and 21 modellos for the Notre Dame Church in Beaune in 1474-1475.
• These works are presumed lost, just like the modello he made for a tapestry of Saint Bernard.
• In 1477 he was still recorded as living in Dijon, but he died either later that year or in 1478.
