Quoting otsisto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
One of them was already brought forth and shot down which was the Donor in the birth of Mary fresco. the red and white outfit Though I still think the gold thingies are more of a tassel then a dag. The other one I think I did not save the url because I think it was a Salome character and I was not interested in the period at the time. It may have been dags and not gores. So my apologies for not being able to produce the picture to help in this matter. I usually save things for myself as I know that I can not teach worth anything and my organizational skills only make sense to me. De
That's ok. I've seen a couple too -- but not the birth of Mary fresco that's been under discussion. One of this *is* a piece of a mural (and I doubt if I could find it now if I tried!) but I can't tell if the woman's dress has contrasting gores up the side, or if it's a giorna (? -- you know the overdress like you see in Ghirlandaio's paintings) that's belted around the body. The ladies are in the background and IIRC they're seated.
