Andrea del Sarto
Andrea del Sarto (Italian: [anˈdrɛːa del ˈsarto]; 1486–1530) was an Italian painter from Florence, whose career flourished during the High Renaissance and early Mannerism. Though highly regarded during his lifetime as an artist senza errori (without errors), his renown was eclipsed after his death by that of his contemporaries, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.

Andrea del Sarto (1486 - 1530) (or Andrea d'Agnolo di Francesco di Luca di Paolo del Migliore) was an Italian painter from Florence, whose career flourished during the High Renaissance and early Mannerism. Though highly regarded during his lifetime as an artist senza errori (without errors), his renown was eclipsed after his death by that of his contemporaries, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.
It was Michelangelo who had introduced Vasari in 1524 to Andrea's studio. He is said to have thought very highly of Andrea's talents. Of those who initially followed his style in Florence, the most prominent would have been Jacopo Pontormo, but also Rosso Fiorentino, Francesco Salviati and Jacopino del Conte. Other lesser known assistants and pupils include Bernardo del Buda, Lamberto Lombardi, Nannuccio Fiorentino and Andrea Squazzella.[13]
Vasari, however, was highly critical of his teacher, alleging that, though having all the prerequisites of a great artist, he lacked ambition and that divine fire of inspiration which animated the works of his more famous contemporaries: Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.
On 21 November 1848, the play Andre del Sarto, by Alfred de Musset, premiered in Paris.
In 1968 the opera Andrea del Sarto by French composer Jean-Yves Daniel-Lesur was based on Alfred de Musset's 1848 play.

Plautilla Nelli: Convent Art and Devotion / Arte e devozione in convento
Plautilla Nelli was Florence's first female painter. Her work is being celebrated in an exhibition at the the city's Uffizi Galleries. For 10 years AWA's quest has been to remember forgotten female artists. The exhibition brings together her restored works for the first time since they were painted at her workshop at the convent of San Marco. In correlation with the exhibit at the Uffizi, AWA is running a crowdfunding campaign from March 1 to April 17 2017 to restore Nelli's Last Supper - see

Italian Renaissance
Andrea del Sarto
Andrea was born Andrea d'Agnolo di Francesco di Luca di Paolo del Migliore in Florence on 16 July 1486. Since his father, Agnolo, was a tailor (sarto), he became known as del Sarto (tailor's son). Since 1677 some have attributed the surname Vannucchi with little documentation. By 1494 Andrea was apprenticed to a goldsmith, and then to a woodcarver and painter named Gian Barile, with whom he remained until 1498. According to Vasari, he then apprenticed to Piero di Cosimo, and later with Raffaellino del Garbo (Carli).
Andrea and an older friend Franciabigio decided to open a joint studio at a lodging together in the Piazza del Grano. The first product of their partnership may have been the Baptism of Christ for the Florentine Compagnia dello Scalzo, the beginning of a monochrome fresco series. By the time the partnership was dissolved, Sarto's style bore the stamp of individuality. It is marked throughout his career by an interest, exceptional among Florentines, in effects of colour and atmosphere and by sophisticated informality and natural expression of emotion.

Villa Poggio a Caiano - frescoes by Andrea del Sarto, Franciabigio, Pontormo, Allori, Bronzino
Villa Medicea di Poggio a Caiano was begun in 1485 by Lorenzo the Magnificent with Giuliano da Sangallo (1445-1516) as an architect. It was the first building at the time which was started and built explicitly as a country villa and not a fortress.
The video takes you through Il Teatro, Sala dei Biliardi (frescoes by Domenico Ferri, 1865), Appartamento di BIanca Cappello and to the second floor, arriving first at the dining room. And then we enter Salon of Leo X.
Salone di Leone X (the son of Lorenzo Il Magnifico) is the main artistic attraction, decorated between 1513 - 1582 with frescoes by Andrea del Sarto, Franciabigio, Pontormo, Alessandro Allori and Bronzino. The frescoes are, in the order of appearance in the video:
- King Syphax of Numidia receiving Scipio (Siface re di Numidia che riceve Scipione) by Alessandro Allori and Agnolo Bronzino, 1532;
- Return of Cicero from exile (Ritorno di Cicerone dall'esilio) by Franciabigio, 1520;
- Vertumnus and Pomona - the lunette by Jacopo Pontormo, 1521;
- Titus Quinctius Flamininus dissuading the Achaeans from their alliance with Antiochus the Great (Flaminio che parla agli Achei) - by Alessandro Allori in 1578-82. The inscription that the dog holds in its mouth reads: SI LATRABITIS, LATRABO - if you bite, I bite;
- Tribute to Caesar (Il Tributo a Cesare) by Andrea del Sarto, 1521 (two thirds on the right, including the Medici giraffe) with later addition by Alessandro Allori in 1582 (one third on the left: boy with the turkey, the horse, etc);
- Hercules in the garden of Hesperides (Ercole nel giardino delle Esperidi) - the lunette opposite the Pontormo's - by Alessandro Allori, 1578-82.
The conclusion is the glazed terracotta frieze is by Bertoldo di Giovanni (Florence, c. 1440 - Poggio a Caiano 1491) and Andrea Sansovino (1467 - 1529) made in 1490. The iconography is:
Mother Earth and the Birth of the Soul; the Myth of Jupiter; Janus and Mars; the Months and Seasons; the Chariot of the Sun or of the Soul.

Casa Martelli
A little-known museum in Florence, Casa Martelli, offers a fascinating insight into Florentine life in the 18th century. The house once belonged to one of the wealthiest families in the city, and little has changed since they lived there. LdM News went for a look around.
Fra Bartolommeo – The Divine Renaissance
Fra Bartolommeo (1473–1517) spent the majority of his life in Florence, the city of his birth. Curator Albert Elen and Chris Fischer, leading expert on the artist’s oeuvre, take you there in this film, and show you the places that mark the most important events in the life of the drawing and painting monk.
Baccio della Porte, as Fra Bartolommeo was called before he entered the monastery, lived in a time of political turmoil, during which the ruling De’ Medici family was driven from the city – and also returned to take an even firmer grip on it than before. Major developments also took place in the arts. Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael created, with the statues of antiquity in their minds, almost tangible figures in a monumental setting. Fra Bartolommeo knew them all. In fact, if he had not withdrawn into the monastery, he most probably would have been mentioned over the centuries in the same breath as those great masters of the Italian Renaissance.

Master pieces of Fra Bartolommeo leave Italy for the first time
From 15 October 2016 to 15 January 2017, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen is showing the masterpieces of Fra Bartolommeo (1473-1517), an artist-monk from Florence. Together with Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael, Fra Bartolommeo was one of the four most important artists of the Italian High Renaissance. This is the first time that paintings by Fra Bartolommeo will be seen in the Netherlands. In this exhibition, which can be seen only in Rotterdam, eleven of his paintings will be reunited with 140 preparatory drawings after a gap of 500 years.
Three masterpieces, 'Madonna della Misericordia', ‘Padre Eterno’ and ‘Madonna de Santuanrio’ recently went on transport from Museo Nazionale di Villa Guinigi in Lucca to Rotterdam. These works have never left Italy before. In this video you will see the effort that was made to transport these monumental works..

Italian painter Domenico Veneziano
Domenico Veneziano (c. 1410 -- May 15, 1461) was an Italian painter of the early Renaissance, active mostly in Perugia and Tuscany.
Little is known of his birth, though he is thought to have been born in Venice, hence his last name. He then moved to Florence in 1422-23 as a boy, to become a pupil of Gentile da Fabriano. He is said to have worked with Pisanello in Rome around 1423-1430. His work was influenced by the style of Benozzo Gozzoli.
In a letter from him to Piero de' Medici, dated from Perugia in 1438, where he likewise resided for many years, he mentions his long connection with the fortunes of the Medici family, and begs to be allowed to paint an altar-piece for the head of that house. He was a contemporary with Fra Angelico and Fra Filippo Lippi, since those two artists and himself are known to have valued the frescoes of Buonfigli at Perugia. Between 1439 and 1441 he painted his masterpiece of the Adoration of the Magi.
One masterpiece is considered to be the St. Lucy Altarpiece (c. 1445-1447), originally in the Santa Lucia dei Magnoli in Florence but has been moved to the Uffizi. The painting, tempera on panel, displays such an unusual palette for this period that Vasari wrote that it had been painted in oil. He is also known for a round panel of the Adoration of the Magi (1439-1441) which was probably commissioned for the palace of the wealthy Medici family and now in Berlin. He influenced Andrea Mantegna.
Other important works are the Madonna del Roseto in the National Museum of Art of Romania and the Madonna Berenson in the Villa I Tatti in Florence, both around 1432-1437.
Vasari alleged that Veneziano was murdered by Andrea del Castagno. However, Castagno died c. 1457, four years before Veneziano.
He worked at the decorations of the Portinari chapel in the hospital of Santa Maria Nuova in Florence from 1439-1445, and had as his assistants Piero della Francesca and Bicci di Lorenzo. It is certain that whilst employed there he used linseed oil as his medium, since the hospital books of that dato make many allusions to this item in his expenses. His latter days were spent in Florence, where he died on 15 May 1461 .
