In his own time he was also known as a highly competent mathematician. In his Lives of the most famous painters ... , Giorgio Vasari (1511 - 1572) says that Piero showed mathematical ability in his earliest youth and went on to write 'many' mathematical treatises. Of these, three are now known to survive. The titles by which they are known are: Abacus treatise (Trattato d'abaco) Short book on the five regular solids (Libellus de quinque corporibus regularibus) and On perspective for painting (De prospectiva pingendi) . Piero almost certainly wrote all three works in the vernacular (his native dialect was Tuscan), and all three are in the style associated with the tradition of 'practical mathematics', that is, they consist largely of series of worked examples, with rather little discursive text. The Abacus treatise is similar to works used for instructional purposes in 'Abacus schools'. It deals with arithmetic, starting with the use of fractions, and works through series of standard problems, then it turns to algebra, and works through similarly standard problems, then it turns to geometry and works through rather more problems than is standard before (without warning) coming up with some entirely original three-dimensional problems involving two of the 'Archimedean polyhedra' (those now known as the truncated tetrahedron and the

48. Web Gallery Of Art - Visit To The Church San Francesco In Arezzo piero della francesca s fresco cycle The subjectmatter of the storiesillustrated by piero is drawn from Jacopo de Voragine s Golden Legend , http://gallery.euroweb.hu/tours/arezzo/

Visit to the church San Francesco in Arezzo: Piero della Francesca's fresco cycle The Chapel The work on a fresco cycle in the Cappella Maggiore of the church San Francesco had already begun in 1452 when when Piero della Francesca visited the city. The Florentine painter Bicci di Lorenzo was working in the chapel, he died in 1452, leaving the decoration of the chapel barely begun. Piero probably began to work right after Bicci's death, covering in a few years the walls of the Gothic chapel with the most modern and most advanced - in terms of perspective - frescoes that the Italian 15th century could have created. The 13th century Crucifix with Saint Francis was already in the church when Piero della Francesca frescoed the chapel; it has been recently placed above the main altar. The Frescoes The subject-matter of the stories illustrated by Piero is drawn from Jacopo de Voragine's "Golden Legend", a 13th century text that recounts the miraculous story of the wood of Christ's Cross. This popular text, typical of the medieval love for accounts of miraculous events, inspired several other fresco cycles in the 14th and 15th centuries in churches belonging to the Franciscans. The most important iconographical precedent for Piero's stories is Agnolo Gaddi's frescoes painted for the Franciscans of Santa Croce in Florence. The story tells how Adam, on his deathbed, sends his his son Seth to Archangel Michael, who gives him some seedlings from the tree original sin to be placed in his father's mouth at the moment of his death

FICHA Nacionalidad: Italia Borgo de San Sepolcro (1416-17) - Borgo de San Sepolcro (1492) Estilo: Renacimiento Italiano Quattrocento Piero della Francesca es el sobrenombre por el que conocemos a Piero De Benedetto Dei Franceschi. Este artista será el gran enamorado de la luz en el Quattrocento italiano y uno de los más grandes pintores del siglo XV. Nació en Borgo San Sepolcro entre 1416 y 1417; desconocemos con quién realizó su formación suponiéndose que fue en su ciudad natal, posiblemente en el taller de Antonio de Anghiari, siendo la primera noticia documentada de 1439, cuando estaba en Florencia con Domenico Veneziano pintando los frescos de San Egidio, hoy perdidos. También se especula sobre un aprendizaje en la capital de la Toscana debido al profundo conocimiento de las obras del Beato Angelico Paolo Ucello y Masaccio , a quienes debe parte de su formación. Ya en estos años juveniles muestra una profunda admiración hacia la perspectiva, la proporción, el orden y la simetría, siguiendo las teorías arquitectónicas y matemáticas de Leon Battista Alberti. En 1442 está de nuevo en Borgo San Sepolcro, iniciando sus originales creaciones con el Políptico de la Misericordia y el Bautismo de Cristo , cuyos fondos nos remiten al paisaje de Las Marcas. Se considera que entre 1448 y 1451 residiría en Ferrara ya que los artistas locales exhiben una gran dependencia de la pintura de Piero, aunque no tengamos ninguna documentación relativa a esta estancia. Su fama irá en aumento ya que en 1451 le encontramos en Rímini, trabajando en el fresco de

He delighted in the play of mathematical ratios and painted The Flagellation of Christ (c.1450; Urbino) in a measured, symmetrical manner. His most famous cycle, The Story of the True Cross Golden Legend. Particularly notable are the imposing portrayal of the Queen of Sheba, the stately array of battle scenes, and the stark night scene of the Dream of Constantine. He painted several court portraits, including one of Sigismondo Malatesta before his Patron Saint, a simple geometric conception. This contrasts with the scrupulous detail he used in painting the profile portraits of the Duke and Duchess of Urbino (Uffizi). Piero also executed the massive

L'artiste décorera, en 1439, le choeur de l'église saint Eugène de Florence avec Domenico Veneziano. La maîtrise de l'art de la perspective, du rendu de la lumière et de la qualité du traitement des couleurs de Veneziano influencera della Francesca. Biographie Sans céder aux effets du trompe-l'oeil, ce dernier utilisera la perspective afin d'ordonnancer des compositions naturalistes grandioses. La confrérie de la Miséricorde de Borgo San Sepolcro lui passera commande d'un retable en 1445. Le maître réalisera personnellement saint Sébastien, saint Jean-Baptiste, le panneau central et la Crucifixion. La Flagellation, l'une de ses oeuvres majeures, date de 1450. Piero della Francesca se rendra ensuite à Ferrare. Il réalisera plusieurs fresques dans certaines salles du palais d'Este. Il étudiera les oeuvres flamandes en possession de son protecteur, Leonello d'Este, marquis de Ferrare. Le Saint Jérôme pénitent, de 1450, intégrera les influences nordiques à la tradition italienne du paysage. Sigismond Pandolfo Malatesta l'appellera à Rimini, en 1451. Il lui confiera le décor de la chapelle des reliques du temple des Malatesta. La fresque de Sigismond Malatesta agenouillé aux pieds de saint Sigismond, roi des Burgondes prendra place dans un cadre en trompe-l'oeil.

Piero della Francesca (c. 1416-1492) Painter, b. at Borgo San-Sepolcro, about 1420; d. there, 1492. The most usual form of his name is the traditional one, PIERO DELLA FRANCESCA, which is better authenticated in contemporary documents than what in late research had been supposed to be the more correct form, PIERO DEI FRANCESCHI (Gronau, Repertorium fur Kunstwissenschaft Vasari , he also decorated a room of the Vatican for Pope Nicholas V. In 1454 he was again at Borgo San-Sepolcro, where in 1460 he painted a fresco of St. Louis of Toulouse, now preserved in the town hall. It was probably between this date and 1466 that he painted his masterpiece, the frescoes in the choir of San Francesco at Arezzo, which may, however, have been begun earlier. The subject is the Story of the True Cross , involving incidents beginning with Adam and including the story of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, Constantine and St. Helena, Heraclius and Chosroes. These frescoes rank with those by Masaccio in the Brancacci Chapel as epoch-making in the decorative art of the fifteenth century. In the spring of 1469 Piero was at Urbino, lodging in the house of Giovanni Santi, the father of

More About This Exhibition "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Romeo and Juliet Metropolitan Museum Director Philippe de Montebello commented: "This exhibition represents a breakthrough of scholarship. That the field of Renaissance art can yield such surprises as Fra Carnevale is truly gratifying." Mr. de Montebello continued, "He has long captivated specialists, not least because the great sixteenth-century artist/biographer Giorgio Vasari ascribed to him a lead role in the formation of the architect Bramante. The ways in which Fra Carnevale mastered and then developed the new art of Florence in a highly sophisticated fashion makes him a paradigm of the Renaissance artist." The exhibition is made possible by Bracco, the diagnostic imaging group.
