 Biography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Andrea da Firenze (Andrea Bonaiuti), Florentine painter, remembered mainly for his frescos in the Spanish Chapel of Sta Maria Novella, Florence.
This is a church of the Dominican Order, and the frescoes, illustrating the Triumph of the Faith and the Dominican doctrine, in both their severity and their meticulous detail, accorded with the expository style of the Dominican preaching friars.
Andrea is last recorded in 1377 working on frescos of the Life of St Raynerius in the Campo Santo at Pisa.
