Paolo di Dono but commonly known as Paolo Uccello grew up in Florence. He spent most of his life there as a painter. His painting style revolved around two popular forms, Late Gothic, and then Heroic style during the early stages of the renaissance. At a young age, he became an apprentice to Lorenzo Ghiberti. Later he moved on to join the group, Arte dei Medici e degli Speziali. At this time Paolo finished his apprenticeship and moved on to become an independent artist. He worked in Venice as a Master, though unfortunately most of all his works were unable to be recovered. Although one of his most famous paintings that was recovered were the\u201d three panels representing the Battle of San Romano (c.<\/em> 1456)\u201d (fig A.). The painting consisted of a new broken perspective that became influential to other artists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of his later works was “Hunt in the Forest” (Fig B.). As this is a later work it shows his mastery on his ability to create a dramatic sense of depth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uccello was also skilled in creating artworks out of stained glass. This work in particular is “The Birth of Christ” (Fig C.), which was held in Duomo, Florence and was completed in 1443 between 1445. As the background was black it made the piece itself feel more enchanted<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Flood (Fig D.) allowed Paolo to show off his advanced perspective studies. This painting was created in 1447 which was around his jaunt to Padua. He also created a painting to commemorate, John Hankwood which created for the Florence Cathedral.(Fig E.) It was a reward for serving for Florence in the Italian Peninsula <\/p>\n\n\n\n
