Text Appearing Before Image:
knowledge of the artists personality suggests that hisown portrait is the shepherd kneeling with devoutly foldedhands. The exquisite scenery melts into a blue distance ofsky and mountains, whence a brilliantly coloured cavalcadedescends, beneath a Roman arch, with characteristic Quattro-cento classicism, discernible also in the pilastersand sarcophagus of the manger. A copy is now placed in theSassetti Chapel in Sta Trinita which the picture once adorned. Room II A number of unimportant pictures have been omitted. No. 151. School of Botticelli. The Virgin andChild. A charming composition, but sadly damaged. Nos. 152, 150. Jacopo DEL Sellaio. Predella Paint-ings, The Visitation, The Entombment. Delicately painted.
