GIUNTA See also: PISANO , the earliest See also:Italian painter whose name is found inscribed on an extant See also:work. He is said to have exercised his See also:art from 1202 to 1236. He may perhaps have been See also:born towards 118o in See also:Pisa, and died in or soon after 1236; but other accounts give 1202 as the date of his See also:birth, and 1258 or thereabouts for his See also:death. There is some ground for thinking that his See also:family name was Capiteno. The inscribed work above referred to, one of his earliest, is a " Crucifix," See also:long in the See also:kitchen of the See also:convent of St See also:Anne in Pisa. Other See also:Pisan See also:works of like date are very barbarous, and some of them may be also from the See also:hand of Giunta. It is said that he painted in the upper See also:- CHURCH
