# PIETRO DI GIOVANNI D'AMBROGIO [View the canonical artist record]() ## Artist - Lifespan: 1410–1449 - Profession: painter - School: Italian ## Biography Italian painter. In a period during which commissions to Sienese painters often demanded adherence to 14th-century precedents, Pietro di Giovanni produced some of the most individual and imaginative solutions, combining local tradition with elements of progressive Florentine style. A member of the Sienese painters' guild in 1428, he had probably trained with Sassetta, whose influence on him was fundamental. Only the last ten years of his brief career are documented. ## Related artworks - [Adoration of the Shepherds between Sts Augustin and Galgano \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds between Sts Augustin and Galgano \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds between Sts Augustin and Galgano]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds]() - [Assumption of the Virgin]() - [Birth of St Nicholas]() - [Departure of St Augustin]() - [Entry of Christ into Jerusalem]() - [Flagellation of St Bartolomew]() - [Reconstruction of a polyptych]() - [St Augustin \(detail\)]() - [St Augustin]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
