Illustration — Annunciazione, circa 1430 Aimone Duce (also called Aimo Dux and Dux Aymo) was an Italian painter active at the court of Savoy-Acaia. He was a native of Pavia, in Lombardy.

Works
A late gothic painter, his works are considered to be of high quality by Piedmont art scholars, showing the influence of his Lombardian origins and probable training. Aimone was a contemporary of Giacomo Jaquerio and they had the patronage of the lords of Savoy in common. Works of Aimone are known at three locations. Major fresco cycles are painted in two churches of the Pineroloese: The Cappella di Missione at Villafranca Piemonte and the Cappella di Santa Maria Assunta in the hamlet of Stella at Macello. A third, less extensive, fresco is in the church of San Pietro at Pianezza.
His extant works in the Villafranca Piemonte chapel include a cycle of frescoes. One wall of the sanctuary depicts an allegorical Cavalcade of the Deadly Sins with the theological virtues shown above, the earliest known work on such a theme within the Piedmont. There are a series of saints on both the left and right walls. The final work attributed to Aimone is a fresco of Saint Sebastian's martyrdom in the parish church of San Pietro at Pianezza, an ex-voto commissioned following an episode of plaque that struck the town in 1428.
