One such work is the painting now entitled 'An Allegory of Venus and Cupid', by Agnolo di Cosimo Toni (1503-1572), better known as Bronzino. Bronzino was one of the major painters of the late Renaissance period. An exponent of Mannerism, a style of art that featured exaggerated colors, figures in unusual postures, and the use of sometimes bizarre images, Bronzino became the official court painter of Grand Duke Cosimo I de' Medici, the ruler of Tuscany from 1537 until his death in 1574. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Journal of Hand Surgery, 40(8), p. 1664-1665 | Publisher: | Elsevier Inc | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 1531-6564 0363-5023 |
