		Lorenzo the Magnificent is, withouth doubt, the most important and significant member of the Medici family from all points of view.
		Lorenzo began his public life very early and he succeeded his father when he was not yet twenty-one.
		Lorenzo died peacefully in the night between April 8 and 9, 1492 in the Villa of Careggi Florence was deeply shaken by his death which left an immense void in the world.

	Biography
		He rose to the rank of deacon, but in 1402 he was enrolled in the painters' guild under his lay name, Piero di Giovanni (Lorenzo Monaco means 'Laurence the Monk'), and was living outside the monastery.
		The monastery was renowned for its manuscript illuminations and several miniatures in books in the Laurentian Library in Florence have been attributed to him, but he was primarily a painter of altarpieces, good examples of which are in the National Gallery in London and the Uffizi in Florence.
		Lorenzo Monaco was an artist whose work bridged the 14th and 15th centuries, between the Trecento art of Duccio and Giotto and the Quattrocento painting of Masaccio and Fra Angelico - upon whom Monaco was an important influence.

		This Nativity is one of Lorenzo Monaco's most celebrated works.
		The compositional elements are brilliantly adapted to the quatrefoil field, and the rich and subtle color harmonies reflect the artist's skill as a manuscript painter.
		Particularly striking is the nocturnal setting, which is suffused by the supernatural light emanating from the Christ Child and the angel.

	Cut-out Crucifix (detail) by LORENZO Monaco
		Under the circumstances, it was important for the painter to give the appearence of maximum plasticity to his work, so that it should produce an effect as close as possible to that of a piece of sculpture.
		In this picture, Lorenzo, one of the most important Italian exponents of the late International Gothic manner, painted a long, slim male body, with no abrupt break or disharmony disturbing the gently undulating rythm of the contours.
		The artist's precedent period of extreme gothicism had evidently subsided; and in this picture Lorenzo experimented with the subtle-toned, soft presentation which was to assume its final form in Masolino's pictures.

		Also produced by Lorenzo Monaco, this extravagant altarpiece was installed in the monastic church in 1413 or 1414 (the inscription is ambiguous).
		This is generally considered Lorenzo Monaco's masterpiece, and it was completed precisely at the height of his activity, which ranged from 1396 until 1424.
		Indeed, Lorenzo was considered by his peers to be the leading painter of his day, and he remained the kingpin of the Florentine art world right up until his death.

		The Ackland Madonna displays Lorenzo Monaco's decorative treatment of line and color as well as his love for elaborately patterned fabrics, all of which are generally characteristic of the International Gothic style.
		Also similar to Lorenzo Monaco is the elegant pattern of curves formed by the total composition of the Ackland VIrgin with the inclination of her head toward the Child complementing the reverse curve of her right arm and the Child's body.
		The deep dark shades of red, blue, and green of the Virgin's garments are different from the pastel colors preferred by Lorenzo Monaco; they find parallels with such a painting by Masolino as his Madonna of Humility of 1423 in the Kunsthalle, Bremen.

		Above all, however, the exhibition is designed to illustrate, for the benefit of the greater public, the quality of execution characterising the panel paintings of Lorenzo Monaco: the prodigious sophistication of the design, the proverbial elegance of his figures, the extraordinary brilliant and luminous colour.
		Certain to be a similar source of wonder and admiration are the numerous codices and illuminated folios, originating from museums in Italy and abroad, which document his fervent activity in the sphere of illumination, in which field Lorenzo Monaco is considered to be one of the greatest exponents of all time.
		From a scientific angle, the extensive catalogue of the exhibition is certain to become a benchmark for the study of this fundamental figure of Late Gothic Italian culture, elaborating in a definitive manner his contribution to the artistic developments of one of the most fascinating periods of Italian art.

		Lorenzo Monaco, for one, gave only token attention to atmosphere or perspective, and he had no interest at all in human anatomy.
		It even has three drawings from early in his life, two for manuscript illumination in collaboration with Lorenzo Monaco, one quite possibly on his own.
		Historians are looking for works related to Lorenzo Monaco with too much dignity for anyone else and works related to Masaccio with too much daring for his main collaborator, Masolino.

		In 1433 he painted 12 figures of apostles for Florence Cathedral with Bicci di Lorenzo and Lippo di Corso (1357–1404).
		He was typical of many of the prolific artists of the early 15th century catering for the Florentine art market in producing compositions based on those of the better-known masters of his day.
		His style is close to that of Bicci di Lorenzo and Lorenzo Monaco, although his drapery is slightly more agitated and he does not carry through Monaco’s sophisticated treatment of space.
