They've moved things around, methinks, but it used to be room IV where you could compare the Duccio and the Cimabuie and the Giotto directly and see where things were going, from International Gothic to Renaissance. Still, they're all there, and more, a favorite place in art history...
 |
Duccio's Madonna and Child Enthroned with Angels, 1285;
in an older post from Siena, I have a clandestine shot of the
Maesta |
 |
Cimabuie's Madonna and Child Enthroned...; 1290-1300;
Cimabuie was Giotto's teacher |
 |
| Giotto, ditto, 1306-10 |
 |
Giotto's Badia Polyptych; here, I maintain, you can see the shift from painting of
Byzantine mosaics to a painting of real people, emotion, etc. |
 |
| Simone Martini's Annunciation, 1333 |
 |
| Spitting it out in gold leaf... |
 |
| Filippo Lippi's Coronation of the Virgin, 1439 |
 |
| Detail...now full tilt into the Renaissance; Lippi was Botticelli's teacher |
 |
| Lippi's Madonna and Child with Two Angels |
 |
| And an Ucello...the Battle of San Romano, 1435 |
