Giotto: his revolutions and his legacy
Tuesday 08 December 2020
The revolutionary contribution of Giotto's style to the development of Western art is often remarked, but which were the specific aspects Giotto innovated? What did writer and artist Cennino Cennini mean when he said that "Giotto changed the profession of painting from Greek back into Latin, and brought it up to date"? This talk will present some of the key novelties promoted by Giotto, contextualising them, and highlighting how the following generations of artists responded, with a focus on those areas and artists that in the first half of the 1400 worked across the Medieval tradition and blossoming Renaissance.
