Who is Stefano Veneziano?

Stefano Veneziano, or Stefano di Sant'Agnese was a 14th-century Italian painter from Venice. He was a contemporary of Lorenzo Veneziano and Semitecolo, and painted in the same manner. He signed his works STEFAN PLEBANUS SANCTAE AGNETIS, and is hence supposed to have been parish priest of Sant' Agnese at Venice; he flourished in the latter part of the 14th century. A Coronation of the Virgin in the Gallerie dell'Accademia of Venice is ascribed to him.
