Bronzino is the name by which every educated person knows Agnolo di Cosimo. The affectation of a supposed "correctness' in order to appear more knowledgeable than we are is a commonplace of pretentious behavior. --Wetman 05:12, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the constructive criticism Anilocra 09:59, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • "Agnolo di Cosimo" should be sorted under the artist's working name of Bronzino. --Jose Madrid
  • Yes it certainly should! Johnbod 04:38, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
  • I have placed a move request to move to Bronzino Johnbod 12:58, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Should there be some mention of the Terry Gilliam/Monty Python connection here? Yes, that is indeed Cupid's foot that comes crashing down at the end of the Python opening titles... Lee M 03:55, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] List of Works

There's a list of works here (Catholic Encyclopedia). JASpencer 11:24, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, as with most EB & CE lists, about 25% will have been sold on or moved, and another 25% re-attributed to his workshop etc in the intevening century. Of the 4 they mention for the National Gallery, London, only one is still attributed to him - 1 is "studio of", 1 "follower of" and one has presumably gone to another painter entirely (the knight). WGA or Actcyclopedia web-sites will be more accurate Johnbod 04:38, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Agnolo di Cosimo → Bronzino — B is currently a redirect to Agnolo di Cosimo. See article and talk page; Bronzino is much the most commonly used name Johnbod 12:32, 4 February 2007 (UTC) - Discussion section created by SigPig |SEND - OVER 05:26, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Add any additional comments:

As the person responsible for this page being found under Agnolo di Cosimo rather than Bronzino, almost two years ago [1], I thought I'd better explain myself. Basically, the page was created after I watched a Terry Gilliam documentary on his Monty Python animations (sorry, art fans!). Gilliam used "Agnolo di Cosimo" throughout, so I took my lead from him. I don't think moving the page is in any way controvertial. It's only here because I'm clearly not an educated person :) Anyway, as all the redirects exist already, and there has been calls for it to be renamed since about four hours after the page was created, this process seems a little unneccessary...someone should be bold. Anilocra 22:08, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Fair enough - I tried to do that, but because Bronzino already exists as a redirect it appears you have to go through this process. Johnbod 02:11, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
