St James
159 x 86 cm Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence In this painting Andrea del Sarto appears to reflect on an archaising iconography in the style of Fra Bartolomeo. The figure is large and dominant, yet the proportions between the masses and the space are accurate. Even the extended spreading of the colours seems intended to lighten the weight of the figure, which due to the faint and uncertain light stands alone and isolated against the background surroundings. It is the standard of the Compagnia di San Jacopo del Nicchio. The two children wear the costume of the "battuti". It is a late work and very beautiful. The painting was restored in 1989.Artist:ANDREA DEL SARTO Title: St James Painted in 1501-1550 , Italian - - painting : religious
