IACOBELLO del FIORE. – Painter. News of him dates from 1400; d. 1439. In his early paintings (paliotto of S. Ubaldo in Pesaro, a polyptych in Teramo, *Coronation of the Virgin* of 1407 in New York) he is still tied to the Byzantine-giant style of Paolo Veneziano, but he will become increasingly attracted by the International Gothic current (of which he is, with Giambono, the most typical exponent in Venetian painting) especially through the work of Gentile da Fabriano, active in Venice from 1408.
Of an intermediate period, around 1410, are the *Stories of St. Lucy* in Fermo and a polyptych in Stockholm. In his late works, especially in the *Justice between Two Archangels* of 1421 in the Accademia in Venice, his style is involuted and heavy. From 1436 is the small *Coronation of the Virgin*, formerly in Ceneda (Venice, Galleria). Other certain works: the *Lion* in the Doge’s Palace, of 1415, a *Madonna* in the Museo Correr, a triptych dated 1436 in Chioggia.
