The Execution of Saint John the Baptist. Artist: Ubaldo Gandolfi (Italian, San Matteo della Decima 1728-1781 Ravenna). Dimensions: 24 16 1/2 in. (61 41.9 cm). Date: ca. 1770.This work, by one of the leading painters of eighteenth-century Bologna, is an oil sketch (modello) for a major altarpiece in the church of San Michele, Vercelli, midway between Milan and Turin. Ubaldo Gandolfi has endowed the scene with a visionary quality, as angels appear to the saint. Especially effective is the contrast between the executioner rolling up his sleeve and the prayerful attitude of the saint. In the left background is Salome, who as a reward for her dancing had requested King Herod that Saint John's head be brought to her on a silver platter.

Banquet

The Adoration of the Shepherds. Artist: Girolamo da Carpi (Girolamo Sellari) (Italian, Ferrara 1501-1556 Ferrara). Dimensions: 12 3/8 × 16 1/8 in. (31.4 × 41 cm). Date: ca. 1535-40.An angel, not the moon, illuminates the nighttime sky of this enchanting depiction of shepherds arriving to worship the sleeping Christ Child--shown remarkably robust and statue-like. Girolamo, who worked for the court at Ferrara, had visited Rome, where he studied the work of Raphael and drew from ancient sculpture. This experience shaped his ideas about ennobling poses and gestures--though without losing an ingratiating charm, evident here in the exchanged expressions of the shepherds and the rocky landscape with its buildings and waterfall.
