Gold Background depicting Madonna visiting St. Elizabeth and character Allegedly by Roberto D'Oderisio (ca 1335 - Naples 1386 ca). Cm 79x36 Oderisio can be considered the most important Neapolitan artist on which converges the Giotto and the Sienese culture. The volumetric research and attention to color and light values ​​have been instrumental in its formation, and particularly in the present painting, these elements are obvious, and those that you can call a fourteenth-century descendant of the Neapolitan school of Giotto. He was able to tap into these pictorial knowledge, and make them his own, as Giotto and some of his students, including Maso di Banco, were in Naples between 1329-34 for jobs in New Castle. It absorbs the spatial definition, especially from Maso and draws suggestions for his painting, made effective through the establishment of plans of light, which shows off the construction of figures, by means of juxtaposed color values. Brightness and balanced composition is what prolongs this and in particular by the work in question. In the stationery of Robert I of Anjou, in the first mid fourteenth century, Oderisio is cited as the "pictor familiaris et magister noster", from this we can deduce the importance he had at the Angevin court for its curriculum works. The crucifixion of Eboli, at the church of San Francesco, is the only signed work has come down to us. ASORStudio
