Text Appearing Before Image:
No. 1295. Domenico Ghirlandajo. Adoration of theMagi. Brilliant colour distinguishes this fine work, executed, asthe inscription states, in 1487. No. 1315. Sebasttano Mainardi. SS. James, Stephen,and Peter Martyr. A harmonious composition. Note the deep warm colourand vigorous design. The artist was a brother-in-law andpupil of Ghirlandajo. No. 1307. Filippo Lippi. The Virgin and Child. One of Filippo Lippis best works. His conception offeminine beauty is inspired by his romantic passion forLucrezia Buti, whom the Virgin is said to portray.

The birth of Eve and the Fall aredepicted in grisaille with cameo-like vigour and precisionin the predella. No. 1139. Michelangelo. The Holy Family.
