Gherardo di Jacopo Starnina
(b Florence, ?c. 1360; d Florence, before Oct 1413).
Italian painter, Florentine school. A pupil of Antonio Veneziano, he is first mentioned in 1387 in
the records of the Compagnia di S Luca in Florence. Starnina was in Toledo in
1393, possibly with his former master, and in Valencia in 1395, 1398, 1399 and
1401. Documents indicate that he executed numerous commissions for frescoes and
panel paintings in both towns, but no surviving works can be connected with
certainty to these records.
