You know our avocatto who died months ago, Giovanni Agnelli..love always the style of Alex, so he put this nickname
Pinturicchio coz he said that Alex, it's like an artist when make
a painting....so it´s like magic and imagination..

Pinturicchio was a famous italian painter who's master and teacher was Caravaggio. And since Agnelli named Baggio Caravaggio it was only right to name DP Pinturicchio

ADP was nicknamed Pinturrichio as his beautiful technique was likened to the artist's delicate and subtle frescoes.
Either way and together, it makes sense
you guys got it all wrong. Pinturrichio is the Italian version of Pinochio. you know the cartoon guy with the nose that becomes longer when he lies. So Angelini, thought that Del Piero reminded him of this famous character that had black hair. Also del pieros nose was a little big, so he called him Pinturrichio, or Pinochio as we North Americans know it.
Thats a true story.
Thats a true story.
BERNARDINO PINTURICCHIO
Painter of Florence
(1454-1513)PINTURICCHIO
Bernardino Betti, known as Pinturicchio, was born in Perugia, and trained there as a miniator. He later worked with Perugino on the "Miracles of St. Bernardino", now in Perugia's National Gallery, and then on the frescos in the Sistine Chapel (on which Botticelli, Signorelli and Ghirlandaio also worked) painting the "Voyage of Moses" and the "Baptism of Christ"
