Created for the book "Old Italian Masters" written by W.J. Stillman with additional commentary by Cole. On a single sheet of paper two plates have been printed of the left-side chancel fresco in the chapel at Riccardi Palace, Florence. The first plate is an up-close detail of the lower right portion of the fresco, focusing on a group of angels at worship. The second plate is a simple line-sketch miniature of the entire fresco.
