Two works by Vittore Carpaccio greet us on entering ROOM III. They hang near the window in a good light. The one represents an " Annun- ciation " (No. 43), the other "The Death of Mary" (No. 49). Beauty of colour and purity of form are combined with wonderful originality of composition in the work of this very personal genius. His imagination was full of subtle inven- tions and happy surprises which set him apart and in a class by himself among the Venetians of his IFmperial Hca&emp of Jfine Hr...ts 175 period. The " Annunciation " especially is a beau- tiful work, divided in half by one of the two fine columns that enclose Mary's dormitory. The other half of the painting shows a formal Italian garden in which the long-winged angel is approaching. A vignette of God the Father is in the upper left corner. It is a triumph of colour and of pictorial quality. The Apostles, three kneeling priests, and a choir of angels surround the bier of Mary on the other canvas. Although not so well preserved, it yet reveals the sunny glow of its colours.
