Giving of the Keys to St. Peter
Of the scenes completely by Perugino’s own hand, only the fresco Giving of the Keys to St. Peter has survived. The simple and lucid arrangement of the composition reveals the centre of narrative action, unlike the frescoes in the same series by the Florentine painter Sandro Botticelli, which, in comparison, appear overcrowded and confused in their narrative focus.
