🇬🇧This book traces the unfolding of Sienese painting from Duccio’s precursors to the Lorenzetti brothers and their circle, covering the years from about 1260 to 1370. Instead of a continuous history, it offers focused studies that open new perspectives on key figures of this remarkable school; among these is the pivotal discovery of an unpublished Crucifixionby Duccio. Its unusual iconography, rooted in Dominican spirituality, illuminates his artistic language and devotional aims, redefining his role in early Trecento Siena. Subsequent essays explore the refinement of style and meaning from Duccio to Simone Martini and the Lorenzetti, presenting a distinct group of newly-identified or overlooked works. The volume ends with Lippo Vanni and Biagio di Goro Ghezzi, whose art demonstrates the lasting vitality of the Sienese tradition.
