Monday Morning Museum: Francesco di Giorgio Martini




Francesco di Giorgio Martini – 1439 Siena, Italy to 1502 Siena, Italy

Italian Early Renaissance Painter and Sculptor


My ideal city would incorporate greenery and places to sit, elements which are missing from Martini’s – Ideal City, circa 1477 – although I do like the open plaza and fountain, I’m not loving the placement of the background structures




Last Monday’s Artist - Eugène Atget
Next Monday’s Artist – Alvin Langdon Coburn
