UGOLINO, Sir Joshua
Reynolds, Earl Amherst,
Knole Park, England. Subject
from Dante's "Divina
Commedia." Count Ugolino
della Gherardesca, who
had betrayed the Pisans in
their struggle with the Genoese,
was overcome in 1288
by the Archbishop Ruggiero
Ubaldini, and imprisoned, with his sons
and grandsons, in Pisa in the Gualandi
tower (afterwards called Torre di fame, Famine
Tower) and left to starve to death.
Painted in 1773; sold to Duke of Dorset
for 400 guineas. Engraved by J. Dixon;
A. Raimbach.—Art Journal (1860), 359;
Northcote, i. 278; Beechey, i. 196.
UGOLINO DA SIENA, 13th and 14th
century, died in 1339(?). Sienese school;
probably identical with Ugolino Neri, who
appears in Sienese documents in 1317. Disciple
of Duccio. Vasari says he painted
many pictures and decorated various chapels
in different parts of Italy; and that he always
followed the manner of Cimabue rather
than that of Giotto. No authentic picture
by him is left in Italy, but an altarpiece in
seven compartments, executed for S. Croce,
Florence, afterwards in the Ottley Collection,
England, and now scattered among private
owners, shows a colour and technical execution
like those of Duccio and Simone.
A colossal Madonna, in the tabernacle of
Or San Michele, formerly supposed to be
his work, is more Florentine than Sienese
in style. The wonder-working Madonna,
which he painted on a pilaster of the original
granary which Orcagna transformed into
a church, probably perished in the fire of
1370. A Betrayal of Christ, and a Procession
to Calvary, are in the National Gallery,
London.—C. & C., Italy, ii. 53; Vasari, ed.
Le Mon., ii. 20; ed. Mil., i. 453; W. & W.,
i. 433.
