Barons Berlinghieri
Barone Berlinghieri also Barone di Berlinghiero da Lucca (traceable from 1228 to 1282 in Lucca ) was a Franciscan and Italian painter.
Barone Berlinghieri was the son of Berlinghiero Berlinghieri , from whom he was also trained. His brothers Bonaventura and Marco are also documented as painters. He is mentioned for the first time together with Berlinghiero and Bonaventura in a list of the citizens of Lucca from the year 1228. It is assumed that he was the elder of the three brothers.
According to the sources, he painted a picture for the Archbishop of Lucca around 1243 and delivered a crucifix for the parish church of Casabasciana near Lucca in 1256 . In 1282 he began to paint a crucifix , a Madonna and a Saint Andrew for the church of San Francesco . It is not known whether he completed it.
None of his works named in the sources have survived, so that it has so far been impossible for art scholars to assign works that are still preserved today.
