228. CHRIST AND THE MONEY-CHANGERS.

_Bassano_ (Venetian: 1510-1592). _See_ 173.

Christ is driving out from the House of Prayer all those who had made

it a den of thieves--money-changers, dealers in cattle, sheep, goats,

birds, etc. A subject which lent itself conveniently to Bassano's

characteristic _genre_ style.
