St George and the Dragon - 1470. painted by Paolo Ucello (1397-1475). hanging in the National Gallery. Paolo (di Dono) Uccello, painter of works in mathematically applied perspective, was born in Florence. He received his first training as a Gothic painter. Uccello, who went to Venice in 1425 and was the first to bring Renaissance ideas to the Venetian area, holds a unique place in the history of art, for he became involved with perspective to the virtual exclusion of the ethical or intellectual concepts found in other Renaissance artists. Paintings by Uccello are intriguing not because they accurately resemble life, but rather because they differ form it or are so arranged as to confuse us into mistaking illusion for reality. ©2006 Credit:TopFoto.
