thumb|right|250px|Pietà of San Remigio. ca. 1365, tempera on wood, 195 x 134 cm, Galleria degli Uffizi, [[Florence]] Giottino (fl. 1324 – 1369), also known as Tommaso Fiorentino, was an early Italian painter from Florence. His real name was Maso di Stefano or Tommaso di Stefano.
Giottino's father, Maestro Stefano Fiorentino, "Stefano the Florentine", was a celebrated painter in the school of Giotto whose naturalism earned him the appellation "Scimmia della Natura", the "Ape of Nature", for his perceived realism. Stefano instructed his son while Maso was studying the works of the great Giotto. Since Maso formed his style on Giotto's works, he became known as Giottino, the "little Giotto".
