Andrea Mantegna (c. 1431 – September 13, 1506) was an Italian painter, a student of Roman archeology, and son-in-law of Jacopo Bellini. Like other artists of the time, Mantegna experimented with perspective, e.g., by lowering the horizon in order to create a sense of greater monumentality. His work was highly influential during his lifetime and continued to be celebrated long after, particularly for his mastery in depicting the human figure and his innovative use of perspective. Mantegna's work on altarpieces is among his most celebrated, combining his deep understanding of classical antiquity with the religious themes of the time to create works that were both innovative and deeply reverent.

The term "Altarpiece by Andrea Mantegna" could refer to several works created by the artist during his lifetime, as he was known to have painted multiple altarpieces, many of which are considered masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance. Among his most famous are the San Zeno Altarpiece (1456–1459) for the Basilica of San Zeno, Verona, and the altarpiece for the Church of Santa Maria in Organo in Verona, showcasing his skill in using perspective and his detailed study of classical antiquity. Mantegna's altarpieces are characterized by their dramatic use of perspective, meticulous attention to detail, and the emotional intensity of the figures depicted.

Each altarpiece created by Mantegna is a complex work that combines various elements of Christian iconography with the artist's deep interest in the classical world, showcasing his ability to blend these influences into a coherent and spiritually moving composition. His altarpieces often feature a central panel depicting scenes from the life of Christ or the Virgin Mary, flanked by panels showing saints or episodes from the Bible, executed with a precision and depth that gives the viewer a sense of witnessing the scenes firsthand.

Mantegna's contribution to the art of the altarpiece cannot be overstated. His innovative use of perspective and his ability to imbue his figures with a sense of gravitas and emotion set new standards for religious art. His works remain an essential study for understanding the evolution of Renaissance art and its roots in both Christian and classical traditions.

Given the broad scope of Mantegna's work on altarpieces, a detailed examination of a specific piece would require identifying the particular work in question. Each of Mantegna's altarpieces has its own history, symbolism, and artistic significance, contributing to the rich tapestry of Renaissance art.
