From the Met Museum
Ambrogio Lorenzetti, Allegory of Good Government (detail), Palazzo Pubblico, Siena, 1338-40
Allegory of Good and Bad Government: Effects of Good Government in the City, Ambrogio Lorenzetti
The artist depicts a peaceful, engaged cityscape of daily life in the fourteenth century. It enters life in Siena during this time. The foreground shows a group of people dancing, along with crowded streets of merchants, shopping, and livestock. In the background, men working hard on roofs of buildings. Throughout the piece, the buildings are tightly compacted and attempt to show the depth and size of the Siena. Bright and bold colors are used which expresses the vibrancy of this good government. The colors, size, medium, and stylization are classic of Late Medieval painting. The fresco clearly illustrates the center of the city with this beautiful cityscape, which depicts life under a good government.

Pietro and Ambrogio Lorenzetti (1280/1290-1348)
Annunciation - Ambrogio Lorenzetti - 1344
A. Lorenzetti was highly influenced by both Byzantine art and classical art forms and used these to create a unique and individualistic style of painting.
His work was exceptionally original. Individuality at this time was unusual due to the influence of patronage on art. Because paintings were often commissioned, individualism in art was infrequently seen.
It is known that Lorenzetti engaged in artistic pursuits that were thought to have their origins during the Renaissance, such as experimenting with perspective and physiognomy and studying classical antiquity.
Ambrogio invented checkerboard paving, giving a depth effect.
They introduced naturalism into Sienese art. In their artistry and experiments with three-dimensional and spatial arrangements, the brothers foreshadowed the art of the Renaissance.
