Italian Early Renaissance Painter, 1420-1497 Italian Renaissance painter. Early in his career he assisted Lorenzo Ghiberti on the east doors of the Baptistery in Florence and Fra Angelico on frescoes in Florence, Rome, and Orvieto. His reputation today rests on the breathtaking fresco cycle The Journey of the Magi (1459 C 61) in the chapel of Florence's Medici-Riccardi Palace. His work as a whole was undistinguished, however. He painted several altarpieces and a series of 25 frescoes of Old Testament scenes   Related Paintings of GOZZOLI, Benozzo :. | View of the main apsidal chapel dfg | Procession of the Middle King | Madonna and Child with Sts Francis and Bernardine, and Fra Jacopo dfg | Scenes from the Life of St Francis (detail of scene 7, south wall) gh | Scenes from the Life of St Francis (Scene 7, south wall) dfg |
