Tabernacle Of The Linaioli
The ''Tabernacle of the Linaioli'' (Italian: ''Tabernacolo dei Linaioli'', literally "Tabernacle of the Linen manufacturers") is a marble aedicula designed by Lorenzo Ghiberti, with paintings by Fra Angelico, dating to 1432–1433. It is housed in the National Museum of San Marco, Florence, central Italy. History The tabernacle was commissioned for the exterior of the seat of the Linaioli (the guild of linen workers in Florence), in the former Old Market, in the October 1432. The marble parts were executed by Simone di Nanni da Fiesole, under design by Lorenzo Ghiberti. The contract for the internal paintings was signed by Angelico on 2 July 1433, for a total of 190 golden florins. The predella is generally dated to 1433–1435. The work was a large one, comparable only to Cimabue's Santa Trinita Maestà or Duccio di Buoninsegna's ''Rucellai Madonna''. It has been speculated that the marble frame was sized according to a pre-existing painting, which was later replaced by Fra Angeli ...

Paintings Depicting John The Apostle
Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface (called the "matrix" or "support"). The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, can be used. In art, the term ''painting ''describes both the act and the result of the action (the final work is called "a painting"). The support for paintings includes such surfaces as walls, paper, canvas, wood, glass, lacquer, pottery, leaf, copper and concrete, and the painting may incorporate multiple other materials, including sand, clay, paper, plaster, gold leaf, and even whole objects. Painting is an important form in the visual arts, bringing in elements such as drawing, composition, gesture (as in gestural painting), narration (as in narrative art), and abstraction (as in abstract art). Paintings can be naturalistic and representational (as in still life and landscape painting), photographic, abstract, narrative, sy ...

Annunciation (Masolino)
The ''Annunciation'' of Masolino is a tempera on panel painting dated to or . It is in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. History The artwork was painted for the altar of the Guardini chapel on the left wall of the in Florence. It is not known whether the work was painted before or after the Brancacci Chapel (where Masolino worked from 1424 to 1425). The date of the painting is tied to the question of Masolino's capacity for using perspective—he might have developed the technique either on his own or with the help of his collaborator on the Brancacci Chapel, Masaccio. In 1567, the panel was transferred to another chapel, and in 1576 it was placed in the church's sacristy, when it was substituted by a more modern Annunciation painted by Alessandro Fei. It remained in the church until around the beginning of the 19th century—its disappearance from the church was only mentioned in editorial comments from the 1832–1838 edition of Giorgio Vasar ...
