The present work can be assigned to the œuvre of an anonymous painter known as the Master of the Madonna Lazzaroni. This minor master was a former pupil of Jacopo di Cione, and was active in the region around Florence. Richard Offner was the first to group together works to form his œuvre, and Miklos Boskovits continued to add to this group in 1975. The Florentine painter, who derives his notname from an image of the Virgin formerly housed in the Lazzaroni Collection in Paris, appears to have remained heavily influenced by Jacopo di Cione at the beginning of his career before orientating himself more towards the works of painters such as Andra di Bonaiuti and Cenni di Francesco later on. He painted the frescoes in the Palazzo Comunale di San Miniato in Pisa, dated 1395, together with the latter artist.
This small altarpiece with its ornamental drapery can be dated to around 1380. It is comparable to other works attributed to this painter, such as the triptych in the Fondazione Cini in Venice, and the panels in the Crespi Collection (Museo Diocesano) in Milan.
We would like to thank Gaudenz Freuler for his kind support in cataloguing this work.

Literatur
Miklós Boskovits: Pittura fiorentina alla vigilia del Rinascimento 1370-1400, Firenze 1975, S 128 u. 239, Anm. 169.
Die vorliegende Tafel kann der Werkgruppe eines anonymen Malers, dem sogenannten Meister der Madonna Lazzaroni zugewiesen werden. Dabei handelt es sich um einen in Florenz im Umfeld des Jacopo di Cione geschulten Kleinmeister, um den Richard Offner erstmals eine Werkgruppe zusammengestellt hat. Diese wurde in der Folge von Miklós Boskovits 1975 erweitert (op. cit.). Der unbekannte, nach einer ehemals in der Sammlung Lazzaroni in Paris befindlichen Madonna benannte florentinische Maler scheint sich anfangs primär an Jacopo di Cione orientiert zu haben und wandte sich später Malern wie Andra di Bonaiuti und Cenni di Francesco zu. Mit letzterem malte er die 1395 datierten Fresken im Palazzo Comunale di San Miniato in Pisa.
Unser Altarbildchen mit seinem Hang für das Dekorative in den Gewändern dürfte gegen 1380 anzusetzen sein und lässt sich mit anderen Werken des Malers, beispielsweise mit dem Triptychon in der Sammlung der Fondazione Cini in Venedig und den Tafeln in der Sammlung Crespi (Museo Diocesano) in Mailand vergleichen.
Wir danken Herrn Gaudenz Freuler für seine Hilfe bei der Katalogisierung dieses Lots.
