Description:

Cenni di Francesco di ser Cenni's life is a mystery. In 1369 he was registered in Florence's Arte dei Medici e Speziali, and his only signed work is a fresco of 1410 from a church in Volterra, Italy. By examining dated artworks with similar characteristics, however, scholars have pieced together his probable career. Cenni's use of golden backgrounds with tooling, flattened space, and elongated figures with elegant features exemplifies the International Gothic style in Florence. Cenni's gothicizing concept of form and lively colors may have been influenced by his experience as a manuscript illuminator. Panel from the Church of San Donato in Polverosa, Florence. (Source: J. Paul Getty Museum Collection [website]; http://www.getty.edu /art/)
