I have good reason to complain of him.

"MICHAEL ANGELO, in Rome."(110) [Image #20] ATHLETE SISTINE CHAPEL, ROME (_By permission of the Fratelli Alinari, Florence_) Buggiardini appears to have fared better than L'Indaco.

He painted a portrait of Michael Angelo with a towel tied round his head like a turban, now in the Casa Buonarroti, at Florence.

From the age of the sitter it appears to belong to this period; the towel may have been used to protect the hair and head of the artist from falling colour as he painted the roof above him.
