Chap. XII. RAFFAELLINO DEL GARBO. 419 right (S. Ambrogio), is also a S. Anthony in majesty between S. Nicholas, and the angel and Tobit, of the same class, but repainted. Florence. Academy of Arts. Galerie des yrands Tableaux. No. 67. Originally in Monte Oliveto, wood, oil, figures half life size. Sub ject, the Resurrection. Vasarfis praise here is excessive (VII. 191). We are dealing, as before, with a dwarfed Filippino. The paltry character of the shapes reminds one of the Resurrection under the name of the Ghirlandai in the Berlin Museum (No. 75). The Redeemer rises from the sepulchre, and the cover has fallen on one of the guards. A spldier on the left gets on his legs in terror. Another runs away to the right with a knife in his hand. Both are grimacing. The figures in action are less successful than the Redeemer and the men asleep about the tomb. The colour, being hatched in shadows, seems handled like tempera, but remains careful and precise, though a little raw, and sharp in contrasts. Serpentine drapery is another prominent defect. The landscape of town, ruins, rocks, and trees is rather green. Florence, l/ffixi. Corridor. No. 35. Round, wood. Injured Holy Family, composed in a mode reminiscent of Raphael, assigned in the Catalogue to Raffaellino, but of the class suggested by his name and that of Ridolfo Ghirlandaio. Venice. Academy. No. 254. Once in the Manfrini Gallery. Round (wood) of the Holy Family, called Credi, well arranged, but scaled and retouched all over; — probably by Raffaellino. Naples. Museum. No. 280. Round, wood, oil. The Virgin gives a pomegranate to the infant who turns towards the young Baptist. Feeble, raw and hard, and overladen with ornament. Of Raffaellino’s school by a later hand. London. Mr. Fuller Maitland. Altarpiece, Virgin and child, be tween SS. John Evangelist, Justus, Julian, and Catherine (wood, life size, grounds regilt). Greatly damaged by restoring, but still exhibiting the style of del Garbo when young, and recently out of the school of Filippino. London. Sir Charles Easllake. Virgin with the child on her lap opening a pomegranate (kneepiece). The Baptist seen to the waist looks on. A vase and book are on a parapet in front, a landscape behind (Wood, small). A graceful tempera of much softness and feeling, carefully finished, and of a clear bright tone. London. Mr. Barker. From the Rogers and Bromley collections. Catalogued as Verrocchio and then as Pollaiuolo (see antea, II. 413). Profile bust of a iady in a gold head-dress, a good likeness by del Garbo. Vienna. Ilarraeh Gallery. No. 180. Round of the Holy Family. The Virgin holds the child. S. Joseph has the young S. John by his 27*
