  Benozzo Gozzoli - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Benozzo Gozzoli ( 1420 - 1497), Italian painter, was born in Florence in 1424, or perhaps 1420, and in the early part of his career assisted Fra Angelico, whom he followed to Rome and worked with at Orvieto.
The art of Gozzoli does not rival that of his greatest contemporaries either in elevation or in strength, but is pre-eminently attractive by its sense of what is rich, winning, lively and abundant in the aspects of men and things.
Gozzoli's genius was, on the whole, more versatile and assimilative than vigorously original; his drawing not free from considerable imperfections, especially in the extremities and articulations, and in the perspective of his gorgeously-schemed buildings.

 Biography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The name Gozzoli, which though absent from the 1550 edition of Vasari 's Lives, appeared in that of 1568 comes from the name "Ghozzolo" common in the other branch of the family, the one that had remained in the country.
In 1459 Benozzo was summoned to Florence by the city's most illustrious patrons, the Medici, to carry out the prestigious commission - the most important of his career - of decorating the walls of the chapel in their palace.
Benozzo died in Pistoia on October 4, 1497, probably of plague, and was buried in the cloister of the convent of San Domenico.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Gozzoli
This work which has kept all its original freshness of colouring is one of the most successful of the Renaissance period, and furnishes a very striking picture of the sumptuous life led in the fifteenth century.
Benozzo was a lover of nature, a skilful landscapist, an adept at representing animal life, and clever in the use of ornament.
Benozzo remained true to the chaste ideals of his master, yet was able to combine in his work the sincerity the skill, and the veraciousness of a charming story-teller.

 Art Bulletin, The: Benozzo Gozzoli. - book reviews
Because of the numerous works Benozzo produced - in particular, his frescoes for the Medici and for the Pisan Camposanto - he is almost never omitted from surveys of Early Renaissance painting.
Benozzo's next move in 1464 was to San Gimignano, where in a three-year period, according to Ahl, he transformed the civic artistic identity from Sienese to Florentine.

Il ciclo francescano di affreschi della tribuna e quello della cappella di San Girolamo, opere che Benozzo Gozzoli realizzò, insieme alla sua bottega, in situ, potranno così confrontarsi con i dipinti, le miniature e i disegni riferibili alla contemporanea attività del maestro o al suo contesto culturale.
L'identità scientifica della mostra tiene innanzitutto conto dei problemi che restano aperti nelle vicende relative al primo Benozzo: dalla sua presenza nella bottega dell' Angelico, alla raggiunta autonomia del pittore, a sua volta responsabile di un' equipe, la cui prima realizzazione è proprio il ciclo francescano di Montefalco.
L'obiettivo principale dell'esposizione risiede infatti nel tentativo di mettere in luce la personalità di Benozzo Gozzoli nel momento in cui, dopo un periodo di formazione trascorso nella bottega di Beato Angelico, l' artista, messosi in proprio, rivela una personalità sostanzialmente diversa da quella del maestro.

Thanks to this first comprehensive study of the artist in English in nearly a century, a verdict is possible.
Analysis of drawings, sinopie (red-pigmented fresco underdrawing), and historic documents portray Gozzoli as a prolific, talented artist who was widely commissioned.
Other restoration projects support the belief that, far from being provincial, Gozzoli was sensitive to the traditions of a diverse clientele and well versed in sacred narrative.
