|
|||
| One of the most famous Italian
humanist , Agnolo Ambrogini called Poliziano,
because he was born in Montepulciano in 1454, but he lived overall
in Florence. After the dead of his father, until younger, he went
to Medici’s court, where he acquired very soon the sympathy
of Lorenzo the Magnificent, and so he became the teacher of the Lorenzo’s
sons Piero and Giovanni in 1475. Great connoisseur of the Greek and the Latin, at just 16 years, in fact, he translated in Latin 4 books of the Iliade, but he is appreciated from the critic overall for his vulgar works. Some examples are the Stanza della Giostra, the Orfeo, the Ballate and the Rispetti. His art does not go to discover the human mind, but he goes to the search of the purity and the beauty that only the nature can give: with careful devotion and pure in mind, he observes and describes the feelings that derive: he gives life to them and making to appear the narration like a work pittor. |
