Text Appearing Before Image:
ure. The modelling of the expressive face is moresubtle here than is usual with Francia, and contrasts forciblywith the delicate landscape. Note the fine sixteenth-centuryframe. No. 1117. Titian. Venus of Urbino. This masterly study of the nude is carried out with restraintand distinction. A certain general resemblance, togetherwith the little spaniel lying upon the couch, have suggestedthe identity of the very attractive figure with the DuchessEleonora, wife of Francesco-Maria della Rovere, for whomthe picture was painted in 1573. No. 1120. Raphael. Portrait of a Gentlewoman. This portrait, executed probably about 1505, belongs toRaphaels early period. The features show many points ofsimilarity with the two fine female likenesses of MaddalenaDoni and La Donna Gravida (Nos. 59 and 229, Pitti), es-pecially the former.

The contrast of the auburnhair and pale flesh tints with the richly embroidered fur-trimmed bodice is most effective. No. 1132. Venetian School. The Head of S.John theBaptist. Formerly ascribed to Correggio. No. 1125. Franciabigio. The Virgin and Child, com-monly styled La Madonna del Pozzo .
