Italy
Francesco di Antonio del Chierico was an early Renaissance Italian painter, illustrator, and jeweler in Florence.
He trained as a goldsmith but later became a highly successful and revered manuscript illustrator. His work was sought after by the patrons of Florence in the second half of the fifteenth century, and he is also considered a favorite artist of Lorenzo de' Medici.
Francesco del Chierico decorated and illustrated books of all sizes that covered a variety of literary, scientific, historical, and religious subjects. He creatively painted manuscript margins as well as full pages. The artist's illustrations often included intricate floral compositions, and he also painted exquisite portraits.
