[A Wanderer in Venice by E.V. Lucas]@TWC D-Link bookA Wanderer in Venice CHAPTER XVI 8/18
I give a reproduction opposite page 102, but the Cupid unfortunately is not distinct enough. Room III has a Spanish picture by Ribera, interesting so near the Tintorettos, and little else. I am not sure that I am not happier in Room IV than anywhere else in this gallery, for here are the drawings, and by an odd chance Venice is rich in Leonardos.
She is rich too in Raphaels, but that is less important.
Among the Leonardos, chiefly from his note books, look at No. 217, a child's leg; No.
257, children; No.
256, a darling little "Virgin adoring"; No.
