Moses. Artist: Lorenzo Monaco (Piero di Giovanni) (Italian, Florence () ca. 1370-1425 Florence ()). Dimensions: Overall 24 1/2 x 17 1/2 in. (62.2 x 44.5 cm); painted surface 22 5/8 x 17 5/8 in. (57.5 x 44.8 cm). Date: ca. 1408-10.These four Old Testament prophets are among the masterpieces of this leading late Gothic Florentine painter. Each figure holds an identifying attribute and strikes a rhetorical pose. Moses holds the tablets of the Ten Commandments; Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac prefigures that of Christ; David, holding a cither, is considered a direct ancestor of Christ; and Noah's ark prefigures the Church. These intense figures have reminded scholars of the sculpture of Donatello and Ghiberti.
