Životopis:
Attavante degli Attavanti, also known as Vante, was an Italian painter born in Florence around 1452 and died around 1525. He was an imitator of Bartolomeo della Gatta and worked for Matthias Corvinus, King of Hungary, for whom he executed a missal that is now in the Royal Library at Brussels. Another breviary by him is in the National Library at Paris, executed in the manner of Domenico Ghirlandaio. He also produced other missals in Florence and Rome, and worked as a miniature painter of great merit. His workshop produced the Jerome's Bible, one of the finest bibles ever to be produced in the Italian renaissance, now in the Portuguese national archives, Torre do Tombo. An illuminated Book of Hours on vellum, attributed to Attavanti or to his 'circle', was stolen from a London warehouse in January 2017.
