BUGIARDINI than 1358. Rumohr doubts, and Kugler de- nies, his existence. Vasari says he was the pupil of Andrea Tafi and represents him as a practical joker, who lived a merry life and died a beggar ; but that he was an excellent painter and able to outdo all others when he could be persuaded to work. He assigns many works to him, but it is doubtful if any examples remain. C. & C., Italy, i. 387 ; Vasari, ed. Mil., i. 499 ; Rumohr, Italien- ische Forschungen, 14.
