Biography
Baronzio is one of several fourteenth-century painters from Rimini, others being Giuliano, Pietro and Giovanni. The work of the Rimini school may have been influenced by Giotto during his visit to Rimini. Baronzio is known from a polyptych he executed for the Convent of the Friars Minor in Macerata Feltria.[1] His devotional theme painting "Madonna Adoring Christ Child" resides in the High Museum of Art in Atlanta.
