FIORE, COLANTONIO DEL. See Colantonio
del Fiore.
FIORE (Flore), JACOBELLO DEL,
flourished 1400-1439. Venetian school.
Son of Francesco del Fiore, president in
1376 of the guild of painters in Venice, a
position held also by Jacobello 1415-36.
Painted in the method of the earlier Venetians;
work marked by incorrectness of
drawing, harshness of colour, and tawdriness
of ornament and of drapery. His Lion
of St. Mark (1415) in the Ducal Palace,
Venice, his Madonna (1436) in the Venice
Academy, and a large picture in the Sacristy
of the Duomo at Ceneda, are fair specimens
of his manner.—C. & C., N. Italy, i. 2;
Burckhardt, 588; Lermolieff, 395.
FIORENZO DI LORENZO, born at Perugia
about 1440-50, died after 1521. Umbrian
school, probably a pupil of Benedetto
Bonfigli. In 1472 he contracted to paint an
Assumption of the Virgin, the principal
parts of which are now in the Perugia
Academy. Though the figures are of common
type and the action is broken and exaggerated,
the drawing is good and the execution
careful. The influence of Perugino
upon Fiorenzo shows itself in a fresco (1475)
of the Eternal in a circular glory between
Saints, in S. Francesco of Diruta, one of the
most important wall-paintings recovered in
our day. There are other pictures by him
in the Perugia Academy; a Madonna on a
gold ground, dated 1481, Berlin Museum;
Madonna, S. Giacomo, Assisi; Altarpiece
(1485), S. Francesco, Terni; Head of Christ
and Saints, Madrid Museum.—C. & C., Italy,
