Andrea di Bartolo

c. 1360-1370; † 1428 - 14th & 15th century - Trecento - Quattrocento - Sienese School

Andrea di Bartolo or Andrea di Bartolo Cini was an Italian painter, stained glass designer and illuminator of the Sienese School mainly known for his religious subjects. He was active between 1389–1428 in the area in and around Siena. Andrea di Bartolo was the son and pupil of Bartolo di Fredi, a very prominent painter in Siena. His youth was spent working in his father's workshop which received many prestigious orders. He collaborated with his father and Luca di Tommèon an altarpiece (now lost) for the altar of the shoemaker's guild in the cathedral of Siena in 1389. This is his first documented work.
