The Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and is a series of artist biographies written by 16th-century Italian painter and architect Giorgio Vasari, which is considered "perhaps the most famous, and even today the most-read work of the older literature of art", "some of the Italian Renaissance's most influential writing on art" and "the first important book on art history". The title is often abridged to just the Vite or the Lives.Contents: CimabueArnolfo di LapoNicola PisanoGiovanni PisanoAndrea TafiGaddo GaddiMargaritoneGiottoAgostino and AgnoloStefano and UgolinoPietro LorenzettiAndrea PisanoBuonamico BuffalmaccoAmbrogio LorenzettiPietro CavalliniSimone MartiniTaddeo GaddiAndrea OrcagnaTommaso FiorentinoGiovanni da PonteAgnolo GaddiBerna Sanese DuccioAntonio VinizianoJacopo di CasentinoSpinello AretinoGherardo StarninaLippoLorenzo MonacoTaddeo BartoliLorenzo di BicciJacopo della QuerciaNiccolo Aretino DelloNanni di BancoLuca della RobbiaPaolo UccelloLorenzo GhibertiMasolino da PanicaleParri SpinelliMasaccioFilippo BrunelleschiDonatelloMichelozzo MichelozziAntonio FilareteGiuliano da MaianoPiero della FrancescaFra Angelico Leon Battista AlbertiLazaro VasariAntonello da MessinaAlesso BaldovinettiVellano da PadovaFra Filippo LippiGentile da FabrianoVittore PisanelloPesello and Francesco PesellinoBenozzo GozzoliFrancesco di GiorgioGalasso Ferrarese Desiderio da SettignanoMino da FiesoleLorenzo Costa Ercole FerrareseCosimo RosselliIl Cecca Sandro BotticelliBenedetto da MaianoAndrea MantegnaFilippino LippiGiorgio Vasari…
