The Gathering of Manna

Francesco Bacchiacca (1494 - 1557) was a Florentine painter of the Renaissance.

He was also known as Bachiacca, Francesco d'Ubertino Verdi or Francesco Ubertini, He initially was a craftsman in an atelier of possibly Pietro Perugino. In 1523, he participated with Franciabigio and Jacopo Pontormo in the decoration of the camera of Giovanni Benintendi. He mainly worked in small cabinet pieces, or designs for tapestries. Sogliani's Deposition, a theme commonly addressed by many Florentine artists, is addressed in a cartoonish form.

His works include:

  • The Flagellation of Christ (1512/1515)
  • The Gathering of Manna (1540/1555)
  • Deposition (1518, Uffizi Gallery)
