GUIDO DA SIENA, Sienese school, latter
half of 13th century. The Madonna in
S. Domenico, Siena, falsely dated 1221, was
painted probably in 1281; and Guido is
probably identical with Guido Graziani, who
appears in documents of 1278. The inscription
has been often retouched, and the
heads of the Virgin and Child have evidently
been entirely repainted. This is important,
as upon it rests the question
whether Florence or Siena was the cradle of
the revival of painting in the 13th century.
By the rectification of the date, the priority
of the Florentine Cimabue to the Sienese
Guido is established, and the honour remains
to Florence. The Madonna in the Academy
at Siena, also ascribed to Guido, is much inferior
to the one at S. Domenico. A Madonna
with Saints, attributed to him, is in
the Gallery of the Historical Society of New
York.—C. & C., Italy, i. 180; Vasari, ed. Le
Mon., i. 233 and N. 1; Milanesi, Della vera
