Simone Martini<\/h1>\n

Simone Martini was an Italian painter based in Sienna during the 14th<\/sup> Century and, like many Gothic artists, his paintings depicted mostly aspects of Christianity. As writer Andrew Martindale states, \u201cSimone was a true Sienese painter trained in the workshop of\u00a0Duccio\u2026\u201d (Martindale I, 1).\u00a0This style influence can clearly be seen in Martini\u2019s work, especially in his work on the Maesta (fig 1)<\/em>, one of his most famous paintings.<\/p>\n

However, the Maesta<\/em> was created in a unique way. As Martindale says, instead of fully embracing the religious aspects of Christianity, Martini displayed a more secular and materialistic presence (Martindale I, 2). In my opinion, this carries over to a lot of his art, including Road to Cavalry (fig 2),<\/em>\u00a0The Miracle of the Child (fig 3), <\/em>and\u00a0Guidoriccio da Fogliano (fig 4)<\/em>. These paintings show a lot more livery and entertainment, rather than focussing on depicting the story accurately as most Gothic artists chose to do.<\/p>\n
