Or Pellegrini Da Cesio Peregrini Da Cesena <ref name="term_55007" />
<p> an [[Italian]] goldsmith, engraver, and worker in niello, flourished in the latter part of the 15th and first part of the 16th centuries. He is one of those artists about whom and whose works there is very little known with certainty. Bartsch gives a descriptive account of ten prints by him (Peintre- Graveur, tom. 13). Duchesne discovered Peregrini's name on some admirable works by him in niello, which he describes (Essai sur les Nielles). Ottley describes ten prints which he supposes to be by this artist. Nagler, from these and various other authorities, gives a list of sixty-four pieces which he attributes to him, among them the following: </p> <p> '''1.''' ''Abraham Loading An [[Ass]] For His [[Journey]] To Mt. Moriah;'' </p> <p> '''2.''' ''Abraham, Isaac, And Two [[Servants]] On Their Way To The Mount;'' </p> <p> '''3.''' ''Abraham And Isaac On The Mount,'' the servants sitting below; </p> <p> '''4.''' ''Abraham With A [[Knife]] And Torch, Isaac [[Bearing]] A [[Bundle]] Of Wood;'' </p> <p> '''5.''' ''Abraham, About To Immolate Isaac, Is [[Prevented]] By An Angel'' : the head of a ram is seen at the right-hand corner; </p> <p> '''6.''' ''David [[Conquering]] Goliath'' : a very fine plate; </p> <p> '''7.''' ''Judith With The Head Of [[Holiness]] In Her [[Left]] Hand;'' </p> <p> '''8.''' ''The [[Holy]] [[Virgin]] With The [[Infant]] On A Throne, Attended'' by ''St. Paul And St. Francis D'Assisi;'' </p> <p> '''9.''' ''The [[Baptism]] Of Christ'' : in the foreground, to the right and left, are St. [[Stephen]] and St. Francis; </p> <p> '''10.''' ''The [[Resurrection]] Of Christ'' : </p> <p> '''11.''' ''The Annunciation,'' in two small medallions; </p> <p> '''12.''' ''John The [[Baptist]] With The Cross,'' on which is a medallion with the Lamb, and the words "Ecce Agnus;" </p> <p> '''13.''' ''St. Sebastian [[Standing]] By A Tree,'' his hands tied above his head; </p> <p> '''14.''' ''St. [[Jerome]] [[Kneeling]] Before A Crucifix,'' the lion behind him; </p> <p> '''15.''' [[St. Roch]] : on the right hand the first person of the [[Trinity]] is blessing him; </p> <p> '''16.''' ''St. [[Margaret]] [[Seated]] On A Large [[Winged]] Dragon,'' holding in one hand a cornucopia, and in the other a cake. Bartsch calls this subject ''Providence.'' </p>
