| 説明 | GIOTTO di Bondone(b. 1267, Vespignano, d. 1337, Firenze)Florentine painter and architect. Outstanding as a painter, sculptor, and architect, Giotto was recognized as the first genius of art in the Italian Renaissance. Giotto lived and worked at a time when people's minds and talents were first being freed from the shackles of medieval restraint. He dealt largely in the traditional religious subjects, but he gave these subjects an earthly, full-blooded life and force.In Rome, Naples, and Florence, Giotto executed commissions from princes and high churchmen. The Peruzzi and Bardi chapels in the Church of Santa Croce are adorned by Giotto's frescoes.In 1334 the city of Florence honored Giotto with the title of Magnus Magister (Great Master) and appointed him city architect and superintendent of public works. In this capacity he designed the famous Campanile (bell tower). He died in 1337, before the work was finished.Giotto was short and homely, and he was a great wit and practical joker. He was married and left six children at his death. Unlike many of his fellow artists, he saved his money and was accounted a rich man. He was on familiar terms with the pope, and King Robert of Naples called him a good friend. |
