2 unusual facts about Angelo Decembrio


Angelo Decembrio

After Leonello's unexpected death (1450) Angelo sought patronage elsewhere, moving first to Barcelona, then spending time at the Neapolitan court of Alfonso the Great of Aragon, where his brother also served, and returning to Barcelona after Alfonso's death in 1458, at the invitation of Carlos de Aragon, Prince de Viana.

In 1467 he was offered a chair in Greek at the University of Perugia, but it is doubtful whether he took it up, and afterwards he disappears from view.
