Born in Siena, he came to Florence (c.1391) and became a Camaldolite monk. His early works show a Sienese influence, evidenced in his sophisticated use of line and delicate rendering of texture... His Adoration of the Magi (Uffizi) reflects the international Gothic style, with its elongated figures and rich pageantry.
