Jacopo
Torriti, The Coronation of the
Blessed Virgin Mary
Detail: Christ
The book appears to be open to a verse from the Song of Songs, but I
have not been able to identify it because of the unfortunate cropping.
It seems to read Veni, electa [mea?]
et ponam te t... ro[re?] m...: "Come [my?] chosen one and I
shall place on thee ... dew ..."
