Giovanni da Milano

1325-1330 (ca.) in Caversaccio; † 1370 - 14th-century - Trecento - Florence School

Giovanni da Milano (Giovanni di Jacopo di Guido da Caversaccio) was a influential 14th-century painter active in Florence and Rome between 1346 and 1369. First recorded in Tuscany on October 17, 1346, as a "foreign painter" from Lombardy (Johannes Jacobi de Commo), he famously bridged Northern Italian realism with the grand Florentine tradition.
