Andrea del Verrocchio (c. 1435-1488) gained fame as a sculptor whose masterpieces in bronze rival ancient sculpture in their naturalism and expressiveness. A favorite of the Medici, the de facto rulers of Florence, Verrocchio was also a celebrated painter and draftsman whose workshop became a training ground for the preeminent painters of the High Renaissance, including his apprentice and pupil, Leonardo da Vinci. Narrated by Academy Award nominee Glenn Close, the film includes new footage of the original settings of the artist's works in Florence, Pistoia, and Venice. Produced by the department of exhibition programs, National Gallery of Art. Support for the film was provided by the Embassy of Italy in Washington, DC. The film was also made possible by the HRH Foundation. Written by The department of exhibition programs, National Gallery of Art See less
