Procession of the Youngest King (detail)
by GOZZOLI, Benozzo, Fresco
Most of the figures were painted from live models and given the likeness of Benozzo Gozzoli’s contemporaries. The painter tried to represent as many likeness as possible, often without concern for the actual space taken up by the body; only a few figures enjoy sufficient space.
The artist’s self-portrait is indicated by an inscription BENOTII on his hat.
