Nanni di Banco

Nanni d'Antonio di Banco (c. 1384 – 1421) was an Italian sculptor from Florence.

A contemporary of Donatello and Lorenzo Ghiberti, Nanni was a sculptor in fifteenth-century Florence. He is well known for his sculpture group Four Crowned Martyrs (Quattro Santi Coronati) (1412–15) which was commissioned by the stone carvers and wood workers guild for the Church of Orsanmichele. The significance of the this work is not only the striking naturalism and individuality of the figures, but also the complexity of construction of a sculpture group.
