Andrea di Bartolo (1360–1428)
Sienese International Gothic painter.
Andrea di Bartolo (c. 1360–1428) was a Sienese painter, son and pupil of Bartolo di Fredi. He is documented in Siena from the late fourteenth century until his death. His surviving panels continue the late-Trecento Sienese gold-ground manner: egg tempera on panel, punched leaf, and compact Passion and Madonna groups.
One Crucifixion from that production is now at the Vanderbilt Museum of Art. The Commons Artwork template records it as a gift of the Samuel H. Kress Foundation to the Vanderbilt University Fine Arts Gallery (accession 1979.0649P) and dates the panel 1400. This file tags the artist to Vanderbilt on the strength of that verified holding; it does not invent other museum slugs.
The words the record keeps using: devout, linear, compact, gilded, Sienese.
