LUCA DI THOMÉ (Tomé), latter half
of 14th century. Sienese school; third-*rate
artist. Called by Vasari a pupil of
Barna, though his painting shows rather
the influence of Simone. His name is the
third on the register of the Sienese Guild
of St. Luke, which was confirmed as a guild
in 1355. He restored in 1357 a Madonna
painted by Pietro Lorenzetti in 1333 above
the portal of the Siena Cathedral, and he
was living in 1392. Among his extant
works are a Crucifixion, dated 1366, Pisa
Academy, and an altarpiece, dated 1377, in
the Capuccini of S. Quirico in Osenna.—C.
