Biography

He was born into a family of painters, and his early life he moved frequently from Turin to Geneva, Thonon-les-Bains and other French localities, mostly working for Duke Amadeus VIII of Savoy, noble families and religious institutions. Starting from 1429 he lived in Turin. For the princes of Acaja he frescoed the castle of Turin (current Palazzo Madama), but his work has been lost.

His other works include fragments of frescoes with Musician Angels (c. 1410 – 1415) in the Maccabi Chapel of the Cathedral of Geneva, now in the Art and History Museum of that city, and a series of frescoes in the Preceptory of Sant'Antonio in Ranverso (from c. 1410). Also attributed to Jaquerio are two tables with the Stories of St. Peter in the Civic Museum of Ancient Art in Turin (c. 1410) and a miniature of the Crucifixion (c. 1420) in the Aosta Cathedral Museum.

gollark: The ceramic server almost certainly isn't big enough of a dataset to train from scratch, nor do they have the GPUs for that, presumably.
gollark: The base GPT-2 models can do that. So if they finetuned one and didn't accidentally erase all its previous knowledge, it should also do that.
gollark: Generally they can manage to use basically-correct grammar and spelling, even if the semantics are wrong.
gollark: The bot doesn't actually display the coherence you'd expect from a GPT-2-based thing, so I'm not sure how much it's actually being used.
