1381. THE HOLY WOMEN AT THE SEPULCHRE.

_Francesco Mantegna_ (Paduan: about 1470-1517.)

_See 639._

For the subject, see 576. Notice the pool in the foreground on which

are two water-fowl, while a tortoise crawls towards it. This picture is

the same size as 639 and 1106, and the three beautiful little panels

doubtless formed a series--now at last brought together again, having

been long separated in three different collections.
