The Giunta Albertiana is a significant artistic movement that emerged in the late 13th century in Italy, particularly associated with the city of Florence. It is named after the painter Giunta Pisano, who is credited with introducing a more naturalistic style to religious art, moving away from the more rigid Byzantine traditions. This movement is characterized by its emphasis on realism and emotional expression in religious subjects. Artists of the Giunta Albertiana school focused on creating lifelike figures and dynamic compositions, which helped lay the groundwork for the later developments of the Renaissance in Italy.
