Duccio and the Origins of Western Painting by Keith Christiansen
In 2004 the Metropolitan Museum acquired "Madonna and Child" by the great painter Duccio di Buoninsegna. Duccio, who died in 1318, has long been recognized as the father of Sienese painting. This book examines the connection between Giotto and Duccio, which he likens to Michelangelo's relationship with Raphael, or Picasso's with Matisse.Keith Christiansen is Jayne Wrightsman Curator of European Paintings at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
