and are the most important works of the master. Several Crucifixes by Giotto exist; one is in the Sanctuary of this chapel, others in S. Marco, S. Felicità, and the Gondi Doni chapel of the Ogni Santi, Florence. Other mural paintings by the master are: Incidents from the lives of SS. Anthony and Francis, in the chapter house of S. Antonio, Padua; a ceiling with the four Doctors of the Church and the four Evangelists, in S. Giovanni Evangelista, Ravenna; the frescos of the Peruzzi, Giugni, and Bardi chapels, S. Croce, Florence; and the remnants of frescos in the Carmine.

GIOVANNI D'ASCIANO, of Siena, born
in Asciano, flourished latter part of 14th
century. Sienese school; pupil of Barna,
and a weak imitator of his style. He finished
the frescos in the church at S. Gimignano,
begun by his master. Vasari says he
executed paintings in the hospital of Siena,
and in the ancient palace of the Medici,
Florence, which gave him reputation, but
they are all lost.—C. & C., Italy, ii. 110;
iii. 62; Vasari, ed. Le Mon., ii. 163.

GIOVANNI DI MARTINI DA UDINE,
born latter half 15th century, died at Udine,
Aug. 30, 1535. Venetian school. Son of
Martino da Tolmezzo, a carver of Udine, and
called Martini to distinguish him from his
cousin, Giovanni Mione. Pupil of Luigi
Vivarini, but how long he was in Venice
is not known. Had returned to Udine in
1497, where he resided until his decease,
his later days being principally devoted to
carving. As a painter he imitated Luigi
Vivarini's early style, and in many respects
he recalls Jacopo da Valentia. Works: Madonna
(1498), Museo Civico, Venice; St.
Mark Enthroned (1501), Cathedral, Udine;
others in the Spilimberg Cathedral, and in
the Brera, Milan.—C. & C., N. Italy, ii. 182;
Lübke, Gesch. ital. Mal., ii. 582.
GIOVANNI DA MILANO, born in Milan
in 14th century. Florentine school. Real
name Giovanni Jacobi; long an assistant to
Taddeo Gaddi; settled at Florence in 1366.
He made no advancement in composition
beyond Taddeo, but he was less conventional
than his master, and more finished and
elaborate in execution. His earliest extant
picture, a Bewailing of Christ, in the Florence
Academy, dated 1365, shows excessive
conscientiousness, but lacks elevation. A
larger and more important picture is the
Virgin Enthroned, Municipal Gallery, Prato.
An altarpiece in five compartments, in the
Uffizi, Florence, and the frescos of scenes
from the story of the Virgin and Mary Magdalen,
in the Rinuccini Chapel, S. Croce,
are also by this painter.—C. & C., Italy, i.
402; Lübke, Gesch. ital. Mal., i. 143; Vasari,
ed. Le Mon., ii. 115, 179; ed. Mil., i.
572; W. & W., i. 455.

GIOVANNI DI PAOLO, died about 1481.
Sienese school. Commonly called del Poggio.
On the roll of Sienese artists in 1428;
in the service of Sano di Pietro in 1447.
According to Ricci, he attended the school
of Gentile da Fabriano. His strange fancy
in composition and awkwardness in representing
action are shown in a Last Judgment
