Bronzino Biography, (Agnolo di Cosimo)(1503-72)Florentine Mannerist painter, the pupil
and adopted son of Pontormo, who introduced
his portrait as a child into
his painting Joseph in Egypt
(National Gallery, London). The origin of his nickname is uncertain, but possibly derived from his having a dark complexion. Bronzino was deeply attached to Pontormo and his style was heavily indebted to his master. |

However, Bronzino lacked the emotional intensity that was such a characteristic of Pontormo's work and excelled as a portraitist rather than a religious painter. Bronzino Agnolo was court painter to Duke Cosimo I de Medici for most of his career, and his painting influenced the course of European court portraiture for a century. Cold, cultured, and unemotionally analytical, his portraits convey a sense of almost insolent assurance. |

| Bronzino was also a poet, and his most personal portraits are perhaps those of other literary figures (Laura Battiferri, Palazzo Vecchio, Florence, c.1560). Bronzino was less successful as a religious painter, his lack of real feeling leading to empty, elegant posturing, as in The Martyrdom of S. Lorenzo (S. Lorenzo, Florence, 1569), in which almost every one of the extraordinarily contorted poses can be traced back to Raphael or to Michelangelo, whom Agnolo di Cosimo idolized. It is the type of work that got Mannerism a bad name. His skill with the girl body was better deployed in the celebrated Venus, Cupid oil painting, Folly, and Time (National Gallery, London), which conveys strong feelings or eroticism under the pretext of a moralizing allegory. his other major paintings include the design of a series of tapestries on The Story of Joseph for the Palazzo Vecchio. - Italian Bronzino biography, Agnolo di Cosimo oil painting supplies. |
