# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born around 1441 in Cortona, Signorelli likely trained under Piero della Francesca in Florence, absorbing the geometry and clarity that would anchor his work. He moved through the major centers — Florence, Siena, Rome — and painted a section of the Sistine Chapel between 1478 and 1484, now lost. By his early forties he settled back in Cortona, where he kept a home base for the rest of his life while traveling for commissions across Tuscany and Umbria. Between 1499 and 1503 he completed the massive Last Judgment cycle in Orvieto Cathedral, a cascade of foreshortened bodies and anatomical precision that became his calling card. He died in Cortona on 16 October 1523; five centuries later, the town mounted a major exhibition in his name.
