The sacred summons captured by Duccio di Buoninsegna
In The Calling of the Apostles Peter and Andrew, Duccio di Buoninsegna deploys a tight composition where sacred figures stand out against a gold and subdued background, blending delicate tempera and expressive contours. The faces, treated with great economy of means, express the gravity and gentleness of a divine calling moment, while the folds of the drapery rhythm the scene with elegant lines. The palette, dominated by golds, ochres, and deep reds, creates an atmosphere that is both solemn and intimate, inviting contemplation.

Duccio, master of Sienese painting
Major artist of the Sienese Early Renaissance, Duccio di Buoninsegna profoundly influenced the transition between Byzantine art and Italian Gothic innovations. His works, marked by narrative sensitivity and ornamental refinement, inspired many Italian painters and helped renew sacred representation in the 14th century. Among his achievements, painted panels and polyptychs demonstrate mastery of composition and attention to iconographic details, making each piece a vital historical and artistic work.
