Like ither airtists o the time, Mantegna experimentit wi perspective, e.g., bi lawerin the horizon in order tae create a sense o greater monumentality. His flinty, metallic laundscapes an somewhit stany figurs gie evidence o a fundamentally sculptural approach tae pentin. He an aa led a wirkshap that wis the leadin producer o prents in Venice afore 1500.
