		There are echoes of Mantegna's style in his work, and he was influenced also by Lorenzo Costa and Leonardo da Vinci.

		In 1441, Jacopo went to Ferrara, where he was victorious in a painting competition with Pisanello.
		Some historians think him to be the son of Jacopo's mistress and not his wife, though there is no direct evidence, and the guess is based only in the fact that Jacopo’s widow, Anna Rinversi, in her last will, dated November 1471, did not mention Giovanni as one of her heirs.
		In 1453, Jacopo married off his daughter, Nicolosia, to the painter Andrea Mantegna, who was at that time working in Padua.

		Almost all of Piero's works are religious in nature—primarily altarpieces and church frescoes—although his serene and noble double portrait Federigo da Montefeltro and Battista Sforza (1465, Uffizi, Florence) is one of his most famous works.
		Certain aspects of Piero's work were significant for the northern Italian painters Andrea Mantegna and Giovanni Bellini, as well as for the later Raphael, but his art was in general too individual and self-contained to influence strongly the mainstream of Florentine art.
