A Wanderer in Venice

CHAPTER XVI
3/18

To him also is given, by some critics, the equestrian S.Chrysogonus, in S.Trovaso.His Accademia picture, on the end wall, is strictly local, representing Justice with her lion and S.
Michael and S.Gabriel attending.

It is a rich piece of decoration and you will notice that it grows richer on each visit.

Two other pictures in this room that I like are No.

33, a "Coronation of the Virgin," painted by Michele Giambono in 1440, making it a very complete ceremony, and No.

24, a good church picture with an entertaining predella, by Michele di Matteo Lambertini (died 1469).
