Description:
|
|
By early 1450 Fra Angelico had returned to Tuscany from Rome to assume the priorate of S Domenico, Fiesole, for the standard period of two years. The altarpiece depicting the Virgin and Child Enthroned with Two Angels and SS Anthony of Padua, Louis of Toulouse, Francis, Cosmas, Damian and Peter Martyr, commissioned by Cosimo de’ Medici for the Observant Franciscans of S Bonaventura, Bosco ai Frati, near Florence (in Mugello), probably dates from this period. Its sumptuous surfaces, grander rhythms and more substantial figures reflect Fra Angelico’s recent Roman experiences. (Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordart online.com/)
