Masolinoorig. Tommaso di Cristoforo Fini(born 1383, Panicale, Romagna—died probably 1440–47, Florence, Republic of Florence) Italian painter. He came from the same district in Tuscany as his younger contemporary Masaccio, with whom his career is closely linked. The two worked together on frescoes for the Brancacci Chapel in Florence's Santa Maria del Carmine. Masaccio's influence is evident in Masolino's contributions, but upon Masaccio's death Masolino returned to the more decorative Gothic style of his earlier years. Want to thank TFD for its existence?

No references found | During the 1420s Fra Antonino's own parent convent of San Domenico at Fiesole had become involved with another prominent Florentine patron, Felice Brancacci, who was quickly selling off his family assets in order to fulfil the obligation entered into, entered into by a previous generation, to decorate in the appropriate manner the chapel in the Church of Santa Maria del Carmine (the result being the frescoes of Masaccio and Masolino in the Brancacci Chapel). A silk-screened design in Untitled (Garden State), 1988, derives from the fifteenth-century Italian painter Masolino da Panicale, who reveled in the ornamentation on rich brocades. When Maitland Griggs purchased it back in 1925, Masaccio's elder and somewhat hapless assistant Masolino seemed a fair bet as an attribution, even though it was a bit like squeezing a square peg into a round hole. |
