Domenico Veneziano

Italian painter. He is especially known for his altarpiece in the Uffizi at Florence.

Domenico Veneziano (c.1400-1461) was an Italian painter, most probably born in Venice. His masterpiece is considered to be the St. Lucy Altarpiece (1445), which was originally in the Santa Lucia dei Magnoli in Florence but has been moved to the Uffizi.

Vasari alleged that Veneziano was murdered by Andrea del Castagno, although this seems rather unlikely, given that Castagno died circa 1457, four years before Veneziano.
