To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Joseph, wearing a long brown cloak, leans on his staff as he turns to look upon a young shepherd in tattered raiment who humbly kneels before the infant Christ, his face ex- pressive of tender and adoring love. In a sunn)' landscape beyond, other shepherds are seen upon a hill, gazing at a group of angels in the sky bringing them the glad tidings of the Saviour's birth. "The beauty of the heads, the easy grace of the figures, the soft fall of the draperies, and the brilliancy of the color-schem...e, " writes Gautier, "all com- bine to render this work one of the most beautiful of the Venetian school. " The picture measures about four and a half feet high by nearly seven feet wide. The figures are under life size. 'PORTRAITOFAPOET* PLATEX FORMERLY ascribed to Titian, this portrait in the National Gallery, London, is now by the majority of authoritative critics conceded to be by Palma Vecchio — one of the rare existing examples of his portraits of men. As to the identity of the person represented, that, as well as the authorship of the painting, has long been a subject of controversy.
