	The Second Rediscovery of Cosmè Tura by user from Antiques and Fine Art
		Tura’s Calliope, with her corporeally expressive twist, her opened dress, her plucked brows, and her eyes coolly averted from the observer, seems to revel in precisely the sensual appeals that made pagan culture and its literary legacy so disturbing to opponents of humanism.
		Tura then emerged as one of the earliest Italian artists to use an oil-based technique as Netherlandish masters such as Rogier Van der Weyden had used it: to create rich and lustrous effects by laying down transparent layers of pigment over a white background.
		The currency of Tura’s “Ferrarese” language was short lived and probably obsolete by 1490, five years before his death, when he would write to the Duke of Ferrara, claiming poverty, illness, and an inability to work or collect his debts from renegade clients.

	Borso D'este - Cosimo Tura
		The resemblance is not convincing, how-ever, either with this medal, which shows a man of middle age, or with a far more famous example which was not cited, the portrait of Sigismundo in prayer before his patron saint by Pietro della Francesca at Rimini.
		On the other hand, it is difficult to reconcile the dates of Borso d'Este as sitter (1413—1471) with those of Tura as artist (1432?-1495) in relation to the portrait of a youth who appears to be scarcely twenty.
		Several undoubted portraits of Borso exist and it is evident that there is a strong resemblance in the features, the nose, mouth, and chin particularly, between these portraits and the young man of the Altman picture.

	Powell's Books - Cosme Tura of Ferrara: Style, Politics, and the Renaissance City, 1450-1495 by Stephen Campbell
		Stephen Campbell takes the career of Tura as a starting point for the investigation of such intriguing issues as the fifteenth-century artist's role and status in both court and urban culture and the bearing these conceptions may have had on Tura's distinctive style.
		The author discusses also how Tura and his contemporaries addressed local themes of ethnic, political, and religious tension in their works.
		Further, Campbell argues that Tura's work anticipates later inventions associated with Leonardo da Vinci at the court of Milan and with Mantegna at Mantua.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Benvenuto Tisio da Garofalo
		With Mazzolino (1481-1530) and Dosso Dossi (1479-1541), Garofalo makes up the modest triumvirate of the Ferrarese school in the sixteenth century.
		At an earlier date the school could boast of such men as Cosimo Tura, Francesco Cossa, and Ercole Roberti, and at one time in the sixteenth century was perhaps the foremost school of poetry and painting in Italy.
		This new style forms the artistic glory of the House of Este, which had also the honour of pensioning Ariosto.
