I rather expected you'd be in deep clover today, Alba. And thanks for another educational foray into what is otherwise impenetrable for me.

Looking again just now at #14, Giotto's, I find it to be WONDERFUL beyond comprehension. He completely captured the scene. I am compelled to call it the best painting I've ever seen on any subject. I would love to hang a reproduction in my home and may just do so.

Now you know why he was called the Father of Renaissance. Jesus Entry in Jerusalem is part of the frescoes of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua. It is a small chapel but the frescoes are sublime. Here is a detail of Enrico Scrovegni presenting a model of the chapel to Mary.
