Giles. There is some very good work in the figures. The drawing is excellent as also the colour. The land- scape is Flemish enough, though the figures have a largeness of form and a fulness of robe that point to the French border painters rather than the painters of the Van Eyck School. 2615. Mary, Queen of France. A handsome por- trait with an ornate dress and a green cut-velvet ground. The lady holds a vase as Mary Magda- len. The hands are frail. 2614. Lady as Mary Magdalen. A little coarse ...in fibre, but rich in colour. The drawing is prim- itive and rather wanting in subtlety. 1331. Fungai, Bernardino. Madonna and Child. The golden robe of the Madonna is remarkable for its texture and brilliancy. The cherubim and the landscape are not remarkable. 568. Gaddi, Angelo di Taddeo. Coronation of Virgin. The gold work in the haloes is tooled, not stamped. The angels' wings were gilded, then painted, and afterwards the lines of the feathers were cut through with a sharp instrument to show the gilding beneath.
