ANCIENT VENETIAN SCHOOL
B-17. Virgin adoring the Infant Jesus. (18½X11.)
The Virgin kneels before her Divine Son. Around are angels, and behind her is Joseph. Above is a company of angels; and, in the distant sky, one is seen appearing to the shepherds. The infant has a crimson, cruciform aureola. In this rudely-drawn picture the future glory of the Venetian School, its gorgeous color, is plainly indicated.
