NB: St. Peter Martyr is not normally represented naked; similarly, thruout the frescoes of this church — and frescoes of very different periods — there is a peculiar emphasis on nudity and near-nudity (see 97A47.24 below, for example) and I wonder if something doesn't underlie this.

97A47.24 IB Norcia: church: S. Agostino: 1st chapel NE (liturgical N): fresco: detail: St. Rocco
TCI Umbria attributes the fresco to the school of Lo Spagna; the church's placard to ?Jacopo Siculo or "some student of Perugino" NB: The saint, as is normal, is depicted pointing to his wounded leg. What is not normal is that the wound has been placed in the groin and the saint's underwear is clearly visible. See 97A47.19 above.
