Fiesole, Tuscany, Italy: detail of a large gilded crucifix preserved within the Church of Santa Maria Primerana in Piazza Mino, the central square of this ancient town high above the city of Florence. The crucifix, painted in tempera on wood, is believed to date from about 1350 and to be a late School of Giotto work by the Florentine Gothic artist Bonaccorso di Cino. The crucifix is in the style of the School of Giotto, pupils and followers of the influential Florentine artist Giotto di Bondone (c. 1267-1337). Bonaccorso di Cino is known to have been a follower of Maso di Banco (flourished c. 1325-53), who was among the most talented of Giotto’s pupils. Bonaccorso was born in Florence and painted there in his youth, but seems to have left the city to work in smaller Tuscan cities and towns such as Pistoia and Prato. His Last Judgement fresco in Prato dates from c. 1345 and his best works were painted in Pistoia in 1347. They include the Allegories of Virtue in the cathedral and works in the Church of San Francesco such as frescoes in its Gatteschi Chapel. A panel with Scenes of the Passion painted by Bonaccorso around the same time is now in the Vatican in Rome, but there is no further record of the artist after about 1348. The Chiesa di Santa Maria Primerana was founded in AD 966 and built on top of remains of both a pagan Roman temple and an early Christian site. The church was later enlarged with the addition of a Gothic chancel and it gained a new façade in the Mannerist style in the late 16th century. Its most prominent feature is the early 19th century portico with Ionic columns on Piazza Mino. D0693.A8285
