Jacopo d'Avanzi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jacopo d'Avanzi (after 1350s - 1416) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period. He is also known as Jacopo Avanzi or Jacopo de Avanzi, although apparently oftened confused with other artists, including Jacopo de' Bavozi or the Vicentine Avanzo.
Born in either Padua or Bologna, he trained supposedly with Vitale da Bologna. He worked with Galasso Galassi of Ferrara and Cristofano of Bologna in the old church of the Madonna di Mezzaratta. The frescoes in the chapel of San Felice and of San Giorgio in the Basilica di Sant'Antonio at Padua, were painted in 1376 along with Altichiero da Zevio.
