From Wacklepedia - The Free Encyclopedia

Agnolo Gaddi (active 1369-1396) was an Italian painter, active during the early Renaissance. He was the son of the painter Taddeo Gaddi.

His work includes frescoes in the choir of Santa Croce in Florence (1332-38) as well as:

• Madonna Enthroned with Saints and Angels (1380/1390), tempera on panel. Triptych, possibly commissioned for a Cistercian monastery.
• The Coronation of the Virgin (c.1380-90), tempera on wood. This painting is probably the central panel of an altarpiece, possibly from the church of San Giovanni de' Fieri near Pisa.
• Madonna of Humility with Angels (mid 1390s), tempera on panel
• Crucifixion (no date), tempera on wood. Part of a polyptych.

Giorgio Vasari included a biography of Agnolo Gaddi in his Lives.
