Giulia Brunetti

Giulia Brunetti (* 1908 in Florence ; † 1986 there ) was an Italian art historian .

Giulia Brunetti studied art history in Florence, but as the daughter of a large family, could not take a permanent position afterwards, so she worked as a freelance art historian on exhibition and museum catalogs. Her favorite field of work was early Renaissance sculpture, but she also published articles on many other areas of Renaissance art. Among other things, she wrote biographical contributions to well-known art encyclopedias , including the General Lexicon of Fine Artists from Antiquity to the Present (Volume 31, 1937) or the Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani (for example, on Benedetto da Maiano , Volume 8, 1966). From 1953 until her death she was a member of the editorial committee of the communications of the Kunsthistorisches Institut .
