Taddeo Gaddi (c. 1290, Florence – 1366, Florence) was a medieval Italian painter and architect. He was the son of Gaddo di Zanobi, called Gaddo Gaddi. He was a member of Giotto's workshop from 1313 to 1337, when his master died. According to Giorgio Vasari, he was considered Giotto's most talented pupil: in 1347 he is placed at the top in a list of Florence's most renowned painters. His main work is the cycle of ''Stories of the Virgin'' in the Baroncelli Chapel of the Basilica of Santa Croce in Florence (1328–1338). Later he perhaps painted the cabinet tiles in the sacristy of the same church, now divided among the Galleria dell'Accademia of Florence and museums in Munich and Berlin. These works show his mastership of Giotto's new style, to which he added a personal experimentation in the architectural backgrounds, such as in the staircase of the ''Presentation of the Virgin'' in the Baroncelli Chapel. According to some scholars, he collaborated in the Stefaneschi Polyptych in Rome. His other works include a '' Madonna'' in Bern, an ''Adoration of the Magi'' in Dijon, the ''Stories of Job'' (Pisa, Camposanto Monumentale), the ''Madonna Enthroned with Child, Angels and Saints'' (Florence, Uffizi Gallery), the ''Madonna del Parto'' (Florence), and the Polyptych in Santa Felicita's sacristy, Florence. Vasari credited him also of the design and reconstruction of the Ponte Vecchio, which is however disputed by modern scholars. He was the father of Agnolo Gaddi. ==References== *(【引用サイトリンク】 work = Catholic Encyclopedia ) *(【引用サイトリンク】 work = Web Gallery of Art ) *(【引用サイトリンク】 work = Web Gallery of 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「Taddeo Gaddi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
