Ambrogio Lorenzetti was a 14th-century Italian painter and one of the most important masters of the Sienese school during the Proto-Renaissance. He was among the first artists to depict urban landscapes with remarkable accuracy for his time, filling them with scenes of everyday life and rich symbolic detail.
Ambrogio Lorenzetti is best known for his celebrated frescoes in the Palazzo Pubblico in Siena, where he depicted the allegories of Good and Bad Government. These works not only reveal his mastery in the rendering of space and architecture, but also stand as a unique example of medieval political thought expressed through painting. In addition to his monumental frescoes, Lorenzetti produced altarpieces and panel paintings, such as the altarpiece for the church of Santa Maria della Pieve and the Scenes from the Life of Saint Nicholas. His works are characterized by subtle emotional depth, balanced composition, and a richly saturated palette.
Today, the master’s works are housed in leading collections worldwide, including the Uffizi Gallery and the Vatican Museums. His distinctive technique makes them especially valued by collectors and art historians.
