From the Collection of the Archduke Leopold William, and registered in the inventory of 1659 as a Giorgione.

VIRGIN AND CHILD.  Wood, 2 ft. 2 in. x 2 ft. 9 in. [No. 176.]

Known as the “Gipsy Madonna,” and ascribed to Titian. Collection of the Archduke Leopold William. (See p. 97.)

PORTRAIT OF A MAN.  Canvas, 3 ft. 5 in. x 2 ft. 9 in. [No. 167.]

Commonly, though erroneously, called “The Physician Parma,” and ascribed to Titian.

Collection of the Archduke Leopold William. (See p. 87.)

DAVID WITH THE HEAD OF GOLIATH.  Wood, 2 ft. 2 in. x 2 ft. 6 in. [No. 21.]

Copy after a lost original, which is thus described by Vasari:  “A David (which, according to common report, is a portrait of the master himself) with long locks, reaching to the shoulders, as was the custom of that time, and the colouring is so fresh and animating that the face appears to be rather real than painted; the breast is covered with armour, as is the arm with which he holds the head of Goliath.”

This picture was at that day in the house of the Patriarch of Aquileia; the copy can be traced back to the Collection of the Archduke Leopold William at Brussels. (See p. 48.)

Herr Wickhoff, however, seems to think that, were the repaints removed, the Vienna picture might prove to be Giorgione’s original painting.  See Berenson’s Study and Criticism of Italian Art, vol. i. p. 74, note.
