	Biography
		Andrea del Castagno (originally Andrea di Bartolodi Bargilla), one of the most influential 15th-century Italian Renaissance painters, best known for the emotional power and naturalistic treatment of figures in his work.
		Little is known of Castagno's early life, and it is also difficult to ascertain the stages of his artistic development owing to the loss of many of his paintings.
		Castagno's emotionally expressive realism was strongly influenced by Donatello, and Castagno's work in turn influenced succeeding generations of Florentine and Paduan painters.

		Andrea del Sarto completò il suo capolavoro, l'affresco dell'Ultima Cena, nel 1527 nel convento valambrosiano di San Salvi, a quel tempo fuori mura.
		Andrea del Sarto completed his fresco masterpiece, the Last Supper, in 1527 in the Valambrosian convent of San Salvi, then outside the city walls.
		Giorgio Vasari definì del Sarto "il pittore senza errori, impeccabile nel progetto, un perfetto disegnatore dall'equilibrio squisito." Rimarcando i limiti del provincialismo toscano del tempo, lo storico dell'arte Antonio Paolucci scrive che se Andrea del Sarto si fosse trasferito a Roma sarebbe stato non meno grande di Raffaello.

		Andrea di Bartolo, detto Andrea del Castagno, nacque a Castagno Mugello nel 1419 circa.
		Della sua produzione tarda fanno parte le figure del Salvatore e di San Giuliano e il monumento a equestre a Niccolò di Tolentino che si trova in Santa Maria del Fiore a Firenze accanto a quello di Giovanni Acuto di Paolo Uccello.

	Andrea del Castagno
		Italian painter of the Florentine school, born sometime between 1390 and 1421 though probably toward the end of that period, probably at Castagno, in the district of Mugello, and died in August 1457.
		His name was for about four centuries burdened with the heinous charge of murder; it was said that he treacherously assassinated his colleague, Domenico Veneziano, in order to monopolize the then recent secret of oil painting as practiced in Flanders by the Van Eycks.
		This charge has, however, been proved to be an untruth; Domenico died four years after Andrea.
