Paolo Uccello (1397–1475) was an outstanding Italian artist of the XV century, a bright representative of the religious, historical, and portrait genres. Paolo Uccello is known in European painting primarily for his innovative approach to solving the problem of visual perspective. He had no followers, so the style of the master's work differs significantly from the manner of painting paintings by other artists of the Early Renaissance. Many facts from the biography of the painter have been lost forever, but the brilliant Italian left many beautiful works to his descendants.
