Piero di Cosimo's Biography
Italian Renaissance painter, also known as Piero di Lorenzo.
The son of a goldsmith, Piero was apprenticed under the artist Cosimo Rosseli, from whom he derived his popular name and whom he assisted in the painting of the Sistine Chapel in 1481.
In the first phase of his career, Piero was influenced by the Netherlandish naturalism of Hugo van der Goes, from whom, most probably, Cosimo acquired the love of landscape and the intimate knowledge of the growth of flowers and of animal life.
He journeyed to Rome in 1482 with his master, Rosselli. He proved himself a true child of the Renaissance by depicting subjects of Classical mythology in such pictures as the Venus, Mars, and Cupid, and many others. Inspired to the Vitruvius’ account of the evolution of man, Piero’s mythical compositions show the bizarre presence of hybrid forms of men and animals, or the man learning to use fire and tools.
During his lifetime, Cosimo acquired a reputation for eccentricity. Reportedly, he was frightened of thunderstorms, and so pyrophobic that he rarely cooked his food; he lived largely on hard-boiled eggs, which he prepared 50 at a time while boiling glue for his artworks.
Piero enjoyed a great reputation as a portrait painter: the most famous of his work is in fact the portrait of a Florentine noblewoman, Simonetta Vespucci, mistress of Giuliano de’ Medici.
He died of plague on 12 April 1522.
