    The most prominent artist of his day, Giotto has influenced Italian art in many ways. Giotto's figures are forceful, monumental, some even might say bulky. His paintings are intense, slow-moving, building up a rhythm to a supremely climactic style. Giotto achieved a convincing representation of space and background. Not only was he an amazing artist but even more amazing that his talent was inherent, not taught in any school but enhanced by his mentor Cimabue.
