Maso di Banco (working ''c'' 1335- 1350) was an Italian painter of the 14th century, who worked in Florence, Italy. He and Taddeo Gaddi were the most prominent Florentine pupils of Giotto di Bondone, exploring the three-dimensional dramatic realism inaugurated by Giotto.〔(A World History of Art: Gothic Art ).〕 Maso's name and work are known to us from Lorenzo Ghiberti's autobiographical ''I Commentari,'' which identifies frescoes in the chapel of the Holy Confessors at Santa Croce, Florence as his chief work.〔Giorgio Vasari confused Maso with Maso di Stephano, called "Giottino".〕 The frescoes, not signed or dated but probably ''c'' 1340, represent scenes from the ''Life of St. Sylvester'' (Pope Sylvester I), the ''Last Judgment,'' and ''The Entombment''. His fresco of a particular judgment is in the Bardi banking family chapel of Santa Croce. It features Gualtiero de' Bardi pleading on behalf of his soul before Jesus Christ. Nanni di Banco, a sculptor of the early 15th century, is not related to Maso. ==Selected works== * Triptych, Detroit Institute of Art * Portable altarpiece depicting ''Madonna and Christ Child with Saints and Scenes From The Life of Christ'' at Brooklyn Museum * Panel depicting ''The Coronation of the Virgin'' at the Budapest Museum of Fine Art 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maso di Banco」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
