Tomaso Barisini, better known as Tommaso da Modena〔 ( Barisini Tomaso ), Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani, Treccani.it, 1964〕 and sometimes called Tomaso Baffini〔Cited by Filippo Baldinucci in his biography of Serafino Serafini,(Notizie De' Professori Del Disegno Da Cimabue ), Volume 2, 1686, page 110,〕 (1326 – 1379) was an Italian painter of the mid-14th century. ==Biography== Tommaso trained in Venice and worked mostly in Northern Italy, but also worked for the court of the Emperor Charles IV in Prague. In Karlstein Castle, two pictures on wood are attributed to him, an ''Ecce Homo'' and a ''Madonna''. A ''St Catherine'' is in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice. Perhaps Tommaso's most important work was done in Treviso. In 1352 as an expression of the Dominican intellectual vocation Tommaso was commissioned to paint a fresco cycle of 40 Dominicans scholars at their desks including Popes, Cardinals, theologians, and philosophers. The work is in the chapter room of the former Dominican convent of San Nicolo' at Treviso, now a seminary. Among others, the cycle portrays Cardinal Annibale Annibaldi, Doctor of the Church Thomas Aquinas, Cardinal Hugh Aycelin, and Cardinal Latino Malabranca Orsini, all of whom were professors of the Dominican ''studium'' at Santa Sabina the forerunner of the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, ''Angelicum'', as well as Bishop and Doctor of the Church Albert the Great founder of the Dominican ''studium'' at Cologne, and renowned biblical commentator Cardinal Hugh of Saint-Cher. The portrait of Saint-Cher is the earliest known depiction of a person wearing spectacles.〔http://dominicanhistory.blogspot.com/2011/05/forty-dominicans-at-their-desks.html Accessed 3-1-2013; http://www.lionstrevisoduse.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/tomaso/html/opere/dom_txt.htm Accessed 3-1-2013〕 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「Tommaso da Modena」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
