This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ... THE PICTURES IN THE LITTLE ANTE-ROOM Ceiling The Birth Of Venus. Lorenzo Sabbatini. About 5oin. H. 72 m. W. Canvas. 1530-1577. Sabbatini, who was described by writers of the last century as" Lorenzino da Bologna," was celebrated as an able imitator of Raphael.

It was painted about the year 1516, when Lotto was at Bergamo. 3 VISION OF EZEKIEL. School ofGiulo Romano. 31 in. H. 22 in. W. Panel. circa 1530. This picture was one of the eight presented by Cosmo III, Grand Duke of Florence, to Philip, fifth Earl of Pembroke.
