Gozzoli is considered one of the most prolific fresco painters of his generation. This style, this work is a perfect example of Renaissance art. The Medicis s, through their patronage of artists, were at the very heart of the Renaissance. When? Around 1459 Why? Gozzoli was commissioned by the extremely rich Cosimo Medici to paint a fresco for his chapel. He had been granted permission by the pope to have his own chapel and wanted it to look very beautiful. This work was not for the public to see because it was in a private chapel. It was an opportunity for the old Cosimo to bask in the wealth he had accumulated. Gozzoli not only put the members of the Medici family into the fresco but also himself. Looking directly out at the viewer.

3 Using with a class. DEFINITION - a fresco (water colour onto damp plaster.) Gozzoli was painting at a time when there was a real focus on painting accurately people, plants and animals. Link to Still Life. The painting would have been viewed in candlelight so the gold leaf would really have glistened. He painted the kings and the followers as people living at the time the members of the family and famous people who lived in Florence. The countryside was what he saw around him. What can they see?
