	Piero di Cosimo de' Medici - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Piero de' Medici (the Gouty), Italian Piero "il Gottoso" (1416 – December 2, 1469), was the de facto ruler of Florence from 1464 to 1469, during the Italian Renaissance.
		Piero was born in Florence, the son of Cosimo de' Medici the Elder and Contessina de' Bardi.
		Piero was warned by Giovanni Bentivoglio, and was able to escape the coup, in part because his son Lorenzo discovered a road-block set up by the conspirators to capture Piero in his trip towards the Medici villa at Careggi; he was not recognized, and was able to warn his father.

	The Birth Date, Early Life, and Career of Piero di Cosimo Art Bulletin, The - Find Articles
		In his 1469 catasto the artist's father, Lorenzo di Piero d'Antonio, refers to Piero's age as eight; eleven years later he listed his son as eighteen, thus indicating that Piero was born between the years 1460 and 1462.
		The final identification of the "real" Piero relied on the baptismal date of the artist's younger brother Giovanni di Lorenzo, said to be six years old in the 1469 catasto and sixteen in the 1480 catasto--and thus (consistently) two years younger than Piero.
		Piero was certainly born in Florence, where his father was recorded in the tax records as early as 1457 (App., doc.

		Cosimo personally bankrolled the construction of a new dormitory, was an executor of the will of the humanist NiccolÃ² Niccoli and thus ensured that a rich collection of texts went to San Marco.
		Cosimo was clearly interested in the monastic life; as already mentioned, Cassian's Monastic Institutes was a heavily annotated manuscript of Cosimo's library in 1418 and Cosimo had private cells built for him both in San Marco and the Observant Augustinian Badia in Fiesole.
		Cosimo was elected as Gonfaloniere di Giustizia on the 28th December, 1438 and thus was able to welcome the papacy as a civic representative.

	Biography
		It is one of Vasari's most entertaining biographies, for he portrays Piero as a highly eccentric character who lived on hard-boiled eggs, "which he cooked while he was boiling his glue, to save the firing".
		Piero also painted portraits, the finest of which is that of Simonetta Vespucci (Musée Condé, Chantilly), in which she is depicted as Cleopatra with the asp around her neck.
		One of his outstanding religious works is the Immaculate Conception (Uffizi, Florence), which seems to have been the compositional model for the Madonna of the Harpies by his pupil Andrea del Sarto.

		The son of a Florentine goldsmith, he apprenticed under the mediocre Cosimo Rosseli, from whom he he derived is popular name and whom he assisted in the painting of the Sistine Chapel in 1481.
		In the first phase of his career, Piero was influenced by the Nordic naturalism of Hugo van der Goes, whose Portinari Altarpiece (now at the Spedale of Santa Maria Novella in Florence) helped to lead the whole of Florentine painting into new channels.

		His master Cosimo had reason to hope that they might beextensive, for he employed him frequently on his own works,continually entrusting him with matters of importance, knowing thatPiero possessed a finer style and better judgment than himself.
		If Piero had notbeen so eccentric, and had possessed more self-respect, he would havedisplayed his great genius and commanded admiration, whereas he wasrather considered a fool for his uncouthness, though he really harmedno one but himself and greatly benefited art by his works.

		Tax declarations made by Piero di Cosimo’s father suggest that the artist was born in either 1461 or 1462.
		A document of 1457 establishes that his father, Lorenzo di Piero d’Antonio, was a maker of small tools (succhiellinaio) rather than a goldsmith, as Vasari claimed.
		By 1480 Piero appears no longer to have been living at the family house in the Via della Scala, Florence, but was an unsalaried apprentice or workshop assistant to Cosimo Rosselli, from whom he received room and board and eventually took the name of Piero di Cosimo.

		The paintings for which he is best known are appropriately idiosyncratic--fanciful mythological inventions, inhabited by fauns, centaurs, and primitive men.
		He was a marvellous painter of animals and the dog in this picture, depicted with a mournful dignity, is one of his most memorable creations.
		His religious works are somewhat more conventional, although still distinctive, and Frederick Hartt (A History of Italian Renaissance Art, 1970) has written that `His whimsical Madonnas, Holy Families, and Adorations provide a welcome relief from the wholesale imitation of Raphael in early Cinquecento Florence'.

		Inverting rules with obvious relish, Florentine artist Piero di Cosimo (1462-1522) is known today, as he was in his own time, for his highly personal visual language, one capable of generating images of the most mesmerizing oddity.
		In this book, Dennis Geronimus overcomes the scarcity of information about the artist's life and works (only one of the nearly sixty known works by Piero is actually signed and dated) and pieces together from extensive archival research the most complete and accurate account of Piero's life and career ever written.
		Unfettered imagination was the sign under which Piero exercised his pictorial invention throughout his life, and yet the complicated artist was also a product of his culture.

	From Lives of the Artists: Piero di Cosimo - Sidebar - MSN Encarta
		The eccentric Italian painter Piero di Cosimo (1462-1521) peopled the landscapes of his mythological and fantastic paintings with painstakingly rendered, and often grotesque and earthy-looking, humans and animals.
		In Italian artist and writer Giorgio Vasari’s Lives of the Artists (1550; revised 1568), Vasari praised Piero’s craft, but lamented Piero’s inattention to any other part of his life.
		Vasari claimed that Piero, in order to cut down on the effort required to feed himself, “reduced himself to eating only boiled eggs which, to economize on fire, he used to cook whenever he was boiling glue, not six or eight, but fifty at a time.”

		Panofsky speaks of Piero’s “obsession with primitivistic notions and his magic power in bringing them to life by his brush.”3 Panofsky ascribes Piero’s deep feeling for primitive life to a kind of emotional identification with primitive man, as if Piero were a primitive man reincarnated.
		Panofsky calls Piero “an atavistic phenomenon,”4 and says that his paintings are the result of a “subconscious recollection of a primitive who happened to live in a period of sophisticated civilization.”5
		He loved animals, and had a corresponding dislike of his fellow man. “He would not have his workshop cleaned, nor the plants in his garden trimmed, nor even the fruit picked, because he hated to interfere with nature.”6 He lived on hard-boiled eggs, which he cooked in batches of fifty in order to conserve fuel.
