Mantegna's most important surviving works from his early career are the cycle of fresco paintings, begun by others, that he completed, 1453-9, in the Ovetari chapel of the church of S. Agostino degli Eremetani, including Life of S. Giacomo and The Martyrdom of S. Cristoforo. He also produced in the same period a magnificent triptych altarpiece, Madonna Enthroned, for the church of S. Zeno in Verona, 1457-9. His most famous surviving work at Mantua is the fresco treatment in the Camera degli Sposi. His biography is below.
