GUIDO DI PIETIU). See .,><jdl<;>, Fra. GUIDO REXI DI NAPOLI. See Slii,,:t- o/ti, Massimo. GUIDO DA SIENA, Sienese school, lat- ter half of 13th century. The Madonna in S. Domenico, Siena, falsely dated 1221, was painted probably in 1281 ; and Guido is probably identical with Guido Graziani, who appears in documents of 1278. The inscrip- tion has been often retouched, and the heads of the Virgin and Child have evi- dently been entirely repainted. This is im- portant, as upon it rests the question whether Florence or Siena was the cradle of the revival of painting in the 13th century. By the rectification of the date, the priority of the Florentine Cimabue to the Sienese Guido is established, and the honour remains to Florence. The Madonna in the Academy at Siena, also ascribed to Guido, is much in- ferior to the one at S. Domenico. A Ma- donna with Saints, attributed to him, is in the Gallery of the Historical Society of New York.-C. & C., Italy, i. 180 ; Vasari, ed.
