Benozzo Gozzoli

Benozzo was born towards the end of 1421 in the region of Badia a Settimo, part of the level district to the west of Florence. From 1438 to 1444-5 Benozzo collaborated with Fra Angelico on the frescoes at the Dominican convent of San Marco, and is generally agreed to be almost exclusively responsible for the decoration of two rooms which were reserved for Cosimo de'Medici. Benozzo Gozzoli explores the life and works of the artist, with many of his artworks reproduced in colour.
