Vecchietta

Vecchietta, real name Lorenzo di Pietro, was an Italian painter, sculptor, architect and jeweller of the Sienese school.

Giorgio Vasari reports about Vecchietta in his treatises, where he characterises him as a gloomy and unsociable man, always immersed in reflection, and therefore did not live long.

Sassetta, Jacopo della Quercia, and the Florentines Mazaccio, Masolino and Donatello played an important role in his training. Later in his life, Vecchietta was the teacher of Francesco di Giorgio and Neroccio de Landi.
