Guido da Siena, a Italian Byzantine style artist, lived during the second half of the thirteenth century. He is famously known for his triptych composition, now divided into three locations. The virgin and child with six angels, the first division, is held by the South Domenico church in Siena. The second, a triangular pinnacle, held by the Benedictine convent, also of Siena, depicts the savior with two angels. The third part, with a Latin inscription with Siena's name written, Guido de Senis and dated 1221, although this is believed to be ingenuine by some, the proper date being 1281.

Master of St. Francis, in Italian Maestro di S. Francesco, was an anonymous Byzantine artist with works dating 1260 to 1280.

The importance of his work is shown with the merging of Italian art and Byzantine style. He painted the Byzantine Iconics with Italian color and ornamental forms.
