DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION
The Madonna diMadonna di Crevole Crevole is located in the opera museum of the Cathedral of Siena. In this work the models of his formation are evident: the schematic drapery and the use of gold from Byzantine painting, elements deriving from the Gothic miniature and typically Byzantine iconographic motifs. In the same period, while Cimabue and his followers try to represent the space three-dimensionally and volumetrically, Duccio tries to focus his attention on the elegance of shapes and lines and on the harmony of colors.
