SAINT DOMINIC, . . . . . . . . . . . . . 230

From a photograph of Bozzani's painting, preserved in his cell at

Santa Sabina, Rome. Here reproduced from Augusta T. Drane's

"History of St. Dominic," by courtesy of the author and the publishers,

Longmans, Green & Co., of London and New York.

["Although several so-called portraits (of St. Dominic) are

preserved, yet none of them can be regarded as the _vera

effigies_ of the saint, though that preserved at Santa Sabina

probably presents us with a kind of traditionary

likeness."]--_History of St. Dominic_.

[In the "History of St. Dominic," on page 226, the author

credits the portrait shown to "Bozzani." We are unable to

find any record of a painter by that name. Nagler, however,

tells of a painter of portraits and historical subjects,

Carlo Bozzoni by name, who was born in 1607 and died in 1657.

He was a son of Luciano Bozzoni, a Genoese painter and

engraver. He is said to have done good work, but no other

mention is made of him.]
