Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Giotto
The signature of the Baroncelli Altar-piece in Santa Croce is Opus Jocti Magistri, and this signature was once erroneously taken as a seal of authenticity. The similar signature on the altar piece at Bologna is to be regarded as evidence unfavourable to a work whose authenticity is in itself doubtful.
