So said Giorgio Vasari from Arezzo, the artist and artist's biographer when referring to Gentile da Fabriano, whose pictorial talent was such that all his contemporaries praised him equally and this appreciation was even expressed by his famous "successor": the "divine Michelangelo".
The exhibition in Fabriano celebrates this great painter for the first time, providing much needed documentation of his very original work - that in many ways prefigured the coming of the Renaissance - thanks to thirty works lent by major public and private collections, both in Europe and the United States.
In one of the last exhibition rooms there is also a small monographic section dedicated to Antonio da Fabriano, a truly Renaissance artist that was to be the last representative of the glorious - yet scarcely acknowledged - school of Fifteenth Century art that blossomed in the Fabriano area.

Originally named Gentile di Niccolò di Giovanni di Massio, he was named after his birthplace, Fabriano in the Marches.
He carried out important commissions in several major Italian art centres and was recognized as one of the foremost artists of his day, but most of the work on which his great contemporary reputation was based has been destroyed.
