MARGARITONE (Margheritone), born
at Arezzo in 1216 (?), died there in 1293 (?).
Tuscan school. A rude follower of the Byzantine
school, classed with Giunta Pisano
and other painters of crucifixes, portraits of
St. Francis, etc., of a repulsive type. The
Church of S. Francesco, Arezzo, contains a
St. Francis and a Madonna by him, and the
National Gallery, London, a Madonna with
symbols of the Evangelists, coloured like
playing-cards. Crucifixes attributed to him
are in the chapel of the Sacristy, S. Croce,
Florence, and in S. Francesco, Castiglione,
Aretino. The Madonna delle Vestighe near
Monte San Savino is signed with his name
and dated 1284. Vasari ascribes to this
artist the design of the Palazzo di San Ciriaco,
Ancona, which dates from the 10th and
was remodelled in the 13th century, and
the tomb of Gregory X. in the Duomo,
