From 21 September 2019 to 6 January 2020 the National Gallery of Umbria in Perugia hosts an unusual and precious exhibition that documents a cross-section of the figurative culture of Perugia, and not only, of the fifteenth century.

The exhibition, entitled "The Autumn of the Middle Ages in Umbria. Wedding coffins in gilded plaster and a forgotten Perugian workshop", curated by Andrea De Marchi and Matteo Mazzalupi, collects chests or wedding coffins, refined furnishing elements used in Renaissance homes Italian, rare fragments of the private life of the rich families who had commissioned them. Only a few examples have come down to the present day: the exhibition thus becomes an opportunity to gather and compare the pieces, making known an unprecedented, intensely profane aspect of domestic luxury furnishings in the mid-fifteenth century.

In addition to the wedding chests from the main Italian and European art collections such as the National Gallery of the Marche, the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, the Muzeum Narodowe in Warsaw and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, a nucleus of paintings attributable to the same workshop, whose manager can perhaps be identified with the personality, little known to date, of Giovanni di Tommasino Crivelli.
