ROMAN LAW — HISTORICAL SCIENCES 313 produced a long succession of such teachers, whose labors brought not only renown but wealth to the cities where they taught. For understanding the work of painters some knowledge of this sort is even more needful. In the great Florentine chapter-house of Santa Maria Novella, which Ruskin has so elaborately described, there is a fresco depicting the seven divine sciences personified by as many female figures. Beneath the figure which represents the science of... Civil Law sits the Emperor Justinian. She carries a sword and a globe, while he holds in his hands the Institutes. No one could appreciate the point of this personification unless he knew the position of Roman law in medieval Italy and the reverence with which Justinian was regarded, a reverence to which Dante in his Paradiso has borne witness. Again in the Sala della Segnatura in the Vatican, we find, among frescoes representing religious scenes, such as that of Moses giving the Tables of the Law, a great fresco by Pierino del Vaga which sets forth the delivery of the Code by Jus- tinian to Tribonian.
