Giovanni di Paolo

Japanese: ジョバンニ・ディ・パオロ(英語表記)Giovanni di Paolo
Giovanni di Paolo
Around 1403-82
Italian painter. Born in Siena. Spent his entire career in his hometown. Influenced by such international Gothic painters as Taddeo di Bartolo, Gentile da Fabriano, and Sassetta, he created a style that praised elegance and was highly fantastical and decorative. His "God of St. John" series (c. 1453-54) evokes the world of Expressionism or Surrealism with its delicate lines, intense contrasting colors, and poetic interpretation of reality.

イタリアの画家。シエナ生れ。全活動期間を生地で過ごす。タッデオ・ディ・バルトロTaddeo di Bartolo,ジェンティーレ・ダ・ファブリアーノ,サセッタらの国際ゴシック様式の画家たちから影響を受けながら,優雅さをたたえ,幻想性,装飾性の濃い作風をつくり上げた。〈洗礼者ヨハネ伝〉連作(1453‐54ころ)は,その細やかな描線,激しいコントラストをなす色彩,現実の詩的解釈ゆえに,表現主義ないしはシュルレアリスムの世界を想起させる。
