. The guards on plates 26 & 27 wear sajones.. These may be the Pope's Swiss guard or Charles V's Hartschiere.

I reckon Fogolino's painting most accurately captures the Italian look, although admittedly I tend to focus on the 1500-1515 period.

Amazing! The difference between Italian art and British at the same period.

I reckon Fogolino's painting most accurately captures the Italian look, although admittedly I tend to focus on the 1500-1515 period.

Does anyone have a larger image of another panel of the fresco cycle by Fogolino of King Christian I of Denmark's visit to Bartolommeo Colleoni?
