Giusto de' Menabuoi

Giusto de' Menabuoi (c. 1320–1391) was an Italian painter of the early Renaissance.

His style was individual, with no links to the realism of his contemporaries Altichiero and Jacopo d'Avanzi, and he had no influence on the later development of Venetian painting.

Between 1375 and 1378 he undertook decoration of the Padua Duomo Baptistery, for Fina Buzzaccarini, wife of Francesco I da Carrara, who planned to use the building as the family mausoleum.

Diverging from his earlier work, the frescoes show Romanesque and Byzantine influences, such as in the dome, where a Christ Pantocrator is surrounded by a geometric pattern of angels and saints.

Giusto de' Menabuoi died in Padua and his burial site was re-discovered outside the Baptistry.
