query: Michelangelo painted scenes from Genesis on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in 1501.

pos: Sistine Chapel ceiling The Sistine Chapel ceiling , painted by Michelangelo between 1508 and 1512 , is a cornerstone work of High Renaissance art .   The ceiling is that of the Sistine Chapel , the large papal chapel built within the Vatican between 1477 and 1480 by Pope Sixtus IV , for whom the chapel is named . It was painted at the commission of Pope Julius II . The chapel is the location for papal conclaves and many other important services .   The ceiling 's various painted elements form part of a larger scheme of decoration within the Chapel , which includes the large fresco The Last Judgment on the sanctuary wall , also by Michelangelo , wall paintings by several leading painters of the late 15th century including Sandro Botticelli , Domenico Ghirlandaio and Pietro Perugino , and a set of large tapestries by Raphael , the whole illustrating much of the doctrine of the Catholic Church .   Central to the ceiling decoration are nine scenes from the Book of Genesis of which The Creation of Adam is the best known , having an iconic standing equaled only by Leonardo da Vinci 's Mona Lisa , the hands of God and Adam being reproduced in countless imitations . The complex design includes several sets of individual figures , both clothed and nude , which allowed Michelangelo to fully demonstrate his skill in creating a huge variety of poses for the human figure and which have provided an enormously influential pattern book of models for other artists ever since .

pos: Michelangelo Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni ( -LSB- mikeˈlandʒelo di lodoˈviːko ˌbwɔnarˈrɔːti siˈmoːni -RSB- ; 6 March 1475 -- 18 February 1564 ) was a Florentine sculptor , painter , architect , and poet of the High Renaissance who exerted an unparalleled influence on the development of Western art . Considered to be the greatest living artist during his lifetime , he has since been described as one of the greatest artists of all time . Despite making few forays beyond the arts , his versatility in the disciplines he took up was of such a high order that he is often considered a contender for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man , along with his rival and fellow Florentine Medici client , Leonardo da Vinci .   A number of Michelangelo 's works of painting , sculpture , and architecture rank among the most famous in existence . His output in every field of interest was prodigious ; given the sheer volume of surviving correspondence , sketches , and reminiscences taken into account , he is the best-documented artist of the 16th century .   He sculpted two of his best-known works , the Pietà and David , before the age of thirty . Despite holding a low opinion of painting , Michelangelo also created two of the most influential frescoes in the history of Western art : the scenes from Genesis on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome , and The Last Judgment on its altar wall . As an architect , Michelangelo pioneered the Mannerist style at the Laurentian Library . At the age of 74 , he succeeded Antonio da Sangallo the Younger as the architect of St. Peter 's Basilica . Michelangelo transformed the plan so that the western end was finished to his design , as was the dome , with some modification , after his death .   Michelangelo was unique as the first Western artist whose biography was published while he was alive . In fact , two biographies were published during his lifetime ; one of them , by Giorgio Vasari , proposed that he was the pinnacle of all artistic achievement since the beginning of the Renaissance , a viewpoint that continued to have currency in art history for centuries .   In his lifetime he was often called Il Divino ( `` the divine one '' ) . One of the qualities most admired by his contemporaries was his terribilità , a sense of awe-inspiring grandeur . The attempts by subsequent artists to imitate Michelangelo 's impassioned and highly personal style resulted in Mannerism , the next major movement in Western art after the High Renaissance .

neg: Saint Luke Drawing the Virgin Saint Luke Drawing the Virgin is a large oil and tempera on oak panel painting , usually dated between 1435 and 1440 , attributed to the Early Netherlandish painter Rogier van der Weyden . Housed in the Museum of Fine Arts , Boston , it shows Luke the Evangelist , patron saint of artists , sketching the Virgin Mary as she nurses the Child Jesus . The figures are positioned in a bourgeois interior which leads out towards a courtyard , river , town and landscape . The enclosed garden , illusionistic carvings of Adam and Eve on the arms of Mary 's throne , and attributes of St Luke are amongst the painting 's many iconographic symbols .   Van der Weyden was strongly influenced by Jan van Eyck , and the painting is very similar to the earlier Madonna of Chancellor Rolin , usually dated to around 1434 , with significant differences . The figure 's positioning and colourisation are reversed , and Luke takes centre stage ; his face is accepted as van der Weyden 's self-portrait . Three near contemporary versions are in the Hermitage Museum , Saint Petersburg , the Alte Pinakothek , Munich , and the Groeningemuseum , Bruges . The Boston panel is widely considered the original from underdrawings that are both heavily reworked and absent in other versions . It is in relatively poor condition , having suffered considerable damage , which remains despite extensive restoration and cleaning .   The painting 's historical significance rests both on the skill behind the design and its merging of earthly and divine realms . By positioning himself in the same space as the Madonna , and showing a painter in the act of portrayal , Van der Weyden brings to the fore the role of artistic creativity in 15th-century society . The panel became widely influential with near copies by the Master of the Legend of Saint Ursula and Hugo van der Goes .

neg: Genesis creation narrative The Genesis creation narrative is the creation myth of both Judaism and Christianity . Two creation stories are found in the first two chapters of the Book of Genesis . In the first Elohim , the Hebrew generic plural word for God , creates the heavens and the earth in six days , starting with light on the first day and ending with mankind on the sixth ( creating man and woman independently and at the same time ) , then rests on , blesses and sanctifies the seventh . In the second story , God , now referred to by the personal name Yahweh , creates Adam , the first man , from dust and places him in the Garden of Eden , where he is given dominion over the animals . Eve , the first woman , is created from Adam and as his companion .   Borrowing themes from Mesopotamian mythology , but adapting them to the Israelite people 's belief in one God , the first major comprehensive draft of the Pentateuch ( the series of five books which begins with Genesis and ends with Deuteronomy ) was composed in the late 7th or the 6th century BCE ( the Jahwist source ) and was later expanded by other authors ( the Priestly source ) into a work very like the one we have today . The two sources can be identified in the creation narrative : is Priestly and is Jahwistic . The combined narrative is a critique of the Mesopotamian theology of creation : Genesis affirms monotheism and denies polytheism . Robert Alter described the combined narrative as `` compelling in its archetypal character , its adaptation of myth to monotheistic ends '' .   Misunderstanding the genre of the Genesis creation narrative , meaning the intention of the author/s and the culture within which they wrote , can result in a misreading . Reformed evangelical scholar Bruce Waltke cautions against one such misreading , the approach which reads it as history rather than theology and so leads to Creationism and the denial of evolution . As noted scholar of Jewish studies , Jon D. Levenson , puts it : `` How much history lies behind the story of Genesis ? Because the action of the primeval story is not represented as taking place on the plane of ordinary human history and has so many affinities with ancient mythology , it is very far-fetched to speak of its narratives as historical at all .

neg: Girolamo Comi Girolamo Comi ( 1507 -- 1581 ) was a 16th-century Italian Renaissance painter .   Not much is known about Girolamo Comi 's life except through his works . He primarily painted religious-themed paintings for church commissions . One work executed by Comi The Madonna with St George is part of the York Museums Trust collection .

neg: Leda and the Swan (Peter Paul Rubens) Peter Paul Rubens was a well known artist during the Baroque era . He completed hundreds of works in various mediums -- many were famous at the time and still are today . But there are also many works of art that people do n't know much about . One of these works is his painting Leda and the Swan . He painted two versions of this subject . The first was completed in 1601 and the second was completed in 1602 .   Rubens was heavily influenced by Michelangelo . He was introduced to his work on his journey to Italy . Rubens decided to go to Rome to make copies of paintings and further his studies of Italian art from the leading Italian artists of the previous century , later termed the Renaissance . In Rome , he encountered Michelangelo 's version of Leda and the Swan . Even though Michelangelo 's version does not exist today , copies of it do . A copy of Michelangelo 's original work was done by Rubens . Rubens would have been familiar with Michelangelo 's Leda . His version is considered a prototype for Rubens 's two works . Rubens 's 1601 Leda , was modeled after Michelangelo 's Leda . The placement of the body is very similar as is its twisting posture . Even the positioning of the fingers is mirrored . The swan is caressing the female in exactly the same way .   The actual figure of the female varies drastically between Rubens 's style and Michelangelo 's style . Michelangelo typically depicted women in a masculine way . Muscles are more clearly defined and the bodies look hard . The body is thinner . The hair is neatly styled . Michelangelo 's body proportions are a little skewed . Rubens 's women , on the other hand , are extremely curvaceous and are much softer . The hair is somewhat loose and not as styled . The body proportions seem more realistic in Rubens 's two works .   Though Rubens 's two works are very similar , they do differ . In his first depiction , the brushstrokes are looser , it is not as detailed , there is less landscape , no elaborate headpiece , the colors are muted , and the drapes are green . The 1601 painting was initially supposed to be in a painted ellipse that cut off the left elbow and part of the right foot as seen through x-rays . Today it is in a rectangular format along with the 1602 painting . In his second painting , the brushstrokes are more precise , there is more detail , there is a clearer landscape in the background , an elaborate headpiece , more vibrant colors , and the drapery is white and red .   A common Renaissance and Baroque theme is females that are abducted or seduced by divinities . This includes Leda and the swan as Zeus , as well as Europa , Antiope , and Danae . Many portrayals of women being seduced by divinities are shown in a sensual manner . For instance , Rubens 's Leda , is very erotic . Leda is shown fully nude with her buttocks and left breast being visible . The swan is caressing her on her most intimate area with its neck cradled between her breasts . The swan is depicted as a graceful animal who also can ravish .   There are many variations to the myth of Leda and the swan . Leda is sometimes called Nemesis and other times they are two separate people . Leda was married to the king of Sparta , Tyndareus . She is the mother of several children though she is most known for giving birth to Clytemnestra , Helen , Pollux , and Castor . The most common myth claims that Zeus transformed himself into a swan to couple with Leda . Some versions claim that she loved Zeus and willing had sexual relations with him , while other versions claim she was seduced and therefore was not willing . That same night , she coupled with Tyndareus also . Leda then gave birth to four children at the same time . The two pairs of twins resulted in Helen and Pollux belonging to Zeus , and Clytemnestra and Castor belonging to Tyndareus . Though each pair is attributed to either Zeus or Tyndareus , each man is said to be the father of all four children . Castor and Pollux were called the Dioscuri meaning `` Zeus 's sons , '' even though Castor was mortal because he was the son of Tyndareus and Pollux was immortal because he was the son of Zeus .   According to Hermes in Lucians ' The Dialogues of the Dead , Leda and her daughter ( Helen of Troy ) are the only women worthy of the title `` beauties of old . '' Rubens 's depictions of Leda clearly embody the phrase . With Leda 's curvy figure , alabaster skin , and golden hair , she is a sight to behold . Because Rubens was known for this type of female figures , Leda was the perfect subject to paint . Rubens became famous partly for his Rubenesque figures and were not common at the time , making his two Leda 's stand out even more .

neg: Annunciation (Memling) The Annunciation is an oil-on-oak panel painting attributed to the Early Netherlandish master Hans Memling . Completed c. 1482 , it was partially transferred to canvas in the 1920s and is today held in the Robert Lehman collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art , New York . It shows the Virgin in a domestic interior , two attendant angels , the archangel Gabriel dressed in rich ecclesiastical robes , and a hovering dove . The painting is based and expands upon the Annunciation wing of Rogier van der Weyden 's c. 1455 Saint Columba altarpiece . According to art historian Maryan Ainsworth , the work presents a `` startlingly original image , rich in connotations for the viewer or worshiper . '' The simple iconography centers on the Virgin 's purity ; the Incarnation , the Virgin as mother and her role as bride and Queen of Heaven . Her swoon foreshadows the Crucifixion of Jesus .   The original frame survived until the 19th century and was inscribed with a date believed to be 1482 ; 20th-century art historians suggested the number 's final digit was a nine , which would give a date of 1489 . In 1847 Gustav Friedrich Waagen described it as one of Memling 's `` finest and most original works '' . In 1902 it was exhibited in Bruges at the Exposition des primitifs flamands à Bruges , after which it underwent cleaning and restoration . Philip Lehman bought it in 1920 from the Radziwiłł family who may have had it in their family since the 16th century ; Antoni Radziwiłł discovered it on a family estate in the early 19th century . At that time it had been pierced through with an arrow and required restoration .

neg: Portrait of Isabella d'Este (Titian) Portrait of Isabella d'Este ( or Isabella in Black ) is an oil-on-canvas painting by the Italian painter Titian , completed between 1534 and 1536 . It shows the Marquess of Mantua , Isabella d'Este ( 1474 -- 1539 ) , daughter of Ercole I d'Este , Duke of Ferrara , and Eleanor of Naples with an ermine zibellino draped over her shoulder .   Although Titan depicts her as a young woman , she was around 62 at the time Isabella was socially ambitious and aware of the effect a painting by a renowned artists might have on her reputation and prestige - she also commissioned portraits by Leonardo da Vinci and Andrea Mantegna .   It is one of two portraits Titian painted of her ; Isabella in Red ( or Aged Isabella ) of 1529 is known only through a Peter Paul Rubens copy . It showed a more aged and matronly Isabella , but she was so displeased with the picture that she asked for a second idealised portrait , showing how she thought she looked forty years earlier . Art historian Lionel Cust mentions that Isabella 's fame and renown was not due to `` beauty , but to intellect and character '' . Fred Kleiner wrote that the work is a `` distinctive portrayal of his poised and self-assured patron that owes little to its model '' . It is today in the Kunsthistorisches Museum , Vienna .

neg: Tomb of Antipope John XXIII The Tomb of Antipope John XXIII is the marble-and-bronze tomb monument of Antipope John XXIII ( Baldassare Cossa , c. 1360 -- 1419 ) , created by Donatello and Michelozzo for the Florence Baptistry adjacent to the Duomo . It was commissioned by the executors of Cossa 's will after his death on December 22 , 1419 and completed during the 1420s , establishing it as one of the early landmarks of Renaissance Florence . According to Ferdinand Gregorovius , the tomb is `` at once the sepulchre of the Great Schism in the church and the last papal tomb which is outside Rome itself '' .   Cossa had a long history of cooperation with Florence , which had viewed him as the legitimate pontiff for a time during the Western Schism . The tomb monument is often interpreted as an attempt to strengthen the legitimacy of Cossa 's pontificate by linking him to the spiritually powerful site of the Baptistry . The evocation of papal symbolism on the tomb and the linkage between Cossa and Florence have been interpreted as a snub to Cossa 's successor Pope Martin V or vicarious `` Medici self-promotion '' , as such a tomb would have been deemed unacceptable for a Florentine citizen .   The tomb monument 's design included figures of the three Virtues in niches , Cossa 's family arms , a gilded bronze recumbent effigy laid out above an inscription-bearing sarcophagus supported on corbel brackets , and above it a Madonna and Child in a half-lunette , with a canopy over all . At the time of its completion , the monument was the tallest sculpture in Florence , and one of very few tombs within the Baptistry or the neighboring Duomo . The tomb monument was the first of several collaborations between Donatello and Michelozzo , and the attribution of its various elements to each of them has been debated by art historians , as have the interpretations of its design and iconography .

neg: Immaculate Conception with Saints (Piero di Cosimo) The Immaculate Conception with Saints ( also known as The Incarnation of Jesus ) is a painting by the Italian Renaissance painter Piero di Cosimo , executed between 1495 and 1505 . It is housed in the Uffizi Gallery of Florence , Italy .   The painting was executed for the Tebaldi Chapel in the church of the Annunziata of Florence , and was acquired by Cardinal Leopoldo de ' Medici in 1670 . It was moved to the Uffizi in 1804 .   The work shows the Virgin in a central and illuminated position , with a dove hovering above her head . She is flanked by the Saints John the Evangelist , Philip Benizi , Catherine ( kneeling on the left ) , Margaret ( kneeling on the right ) , Antoninus and Peter . In the background is a typical Piero 's landscape , with two hills characterized by rock with human and beast appearance , where the other scenes of the Adoration of the Magi , the Annunciation to the Shepherds on the left and the Flight to Egypt on the right are depicted .

neg: The Crowning with Thorns (Prato) The Crowning with Thorns was the subject of two paintings by the Italian master Caravaggio . The first version , dated to around 1604 -- 1605 , is now in the Cassa di Risparmi e Depositi of Palazzo degli Alberti , Prato ( Tuscany ) . The attribution to Caravaggio is disputed .   On June 25 , 1605 , Caravaggio wrote out , in his own hand , a contract to paint `` a picture of the same size and value as the one I have already done for him of Christ 's crowning '' , which restricts the Crowning to a period prior to this date . There is no firm evidence for a more precise dating , but the figure of Christ has been clearly influenced by the Christ in Rubens ' altarpiece of The Crowning with Thorns in the Church of Santa Croce in Gerusalemme , Rome , completed in April 1602 . The recipient of both the Crowning with Thorns and the Ecce Homo -- the painting to which the contract relates -- was Massimo Massimi , a wealthy financier and art collector in the circle of Caravaggio 's patron , marquis Vincenzo Giustiniani . The actual date is disputed -- John Gash places it in 1601 -- 1603 .   Stylistically the painting is based on Rubens 's altarpiece for the pose of Christ and on Titian 's treatment of the same subject ( now in the Louvre ) for the soldier with the staff behind Christ . But Caravaggio has reverted to the compact , symmetrical approach employed by 15th-century artists , visible in , for example , the work of Hieronymous Bosch in Christ Mocked . The gestures which define the situation are restrained and understated -- the almost imperceptible actions of the tormentors focus attention on Christ , who looks up , his bound hands slightly raised almost in forgiveness .

neg: Renaissance art Renaissance art is the painting , sculpture and decorative arts of that period of European history known as the Renaissance , emerging as a distinct style in Italy in about 1400 , in parallel with developments which occurred in philosophy , literature , music and science . The Renaissance art , perceived as the noblest of ancient traditions , took as its foundation the art of Classical antiquity , but transformed that tradition by absorbing recent developments in the art of Northern Europe and by applying contemporary scientific knowledge . Renaissance art , with Renaissance Humanist philosophy , spread throughout Europe , affecting both artists and their patrons with the development of new techniques and new artistic sensibilities . Renaissance art marks the transition of Europe from the medieval period to the Early Modern age .   In many parts of Europe , Early Renaissance art was created in parallel with Late Medieval art .   The influences upon the development of Renaissance men and women in the early 15th century are those that also affected Philosophy , Literature , Architecture , Theology , Science , Government and other aspects of society . The following list presents a summary , dealt with more fully in the main articles that are cited above .  Classical texts , lost to European scholars for centuries , became available . These included Philosophy , Prose , Poetry , Drama , Science , a thesis on the Arts and Early Christian Theology .  Simultaneously , Europe gained access to advanced mathematics which had its provenance in the works of Islamic scholars .  The advent of movable type printing in the 15th century meant that ideas could be disseminated easily , and an increasing number of books were written for a broad public .  The establishment of the Medici Bank and the subsequent trade it generated brought unprecedented wealth to a single Italian city , Florence .  Cosimo de ' Medici set a new standard for patronage of the arts , not associated with the church or monarchy .  Humanist philosophy meant that man 's relationship with humanity , the universe and with God was no longer the exclusive province of the Church .  A revived interest in the Classics brought about the first archaeological study of Roman remains by the architect Brunelleschi and sculptor Donatello . The revival of a style of architecture based on classical precedents inspired a corresponding classicism in painting and sculpture , which manifested itself as early as the 1420s in the paintings of Masaccio and Uccello .  The improvement of oil paint and developments in oil-painting technique by Dutch artists such as Jan van Eyck , Rogier van der Weyden and Hugo van der Goes led to its adoption in Italy from about 1475 and had ultimately lasting effects on painting practices , worldwide .  The serendipitous presence within the region of Florence in the early 15th century of certain individuals of artistic genius , most notably Masaccio , Brunelleschi , Ghiberti , Piero della Francesca , Donatello and Michelozzo formed an ethos out of which sprang the great masters of the High Renaissance , as well as supporting and encouraging many lesser artists to achieve work of extraordinary quality .  A similar heritage of artistic achievement occurred in Venice through the talented Bellini family , their influential inlaw Mantegna , Giorgione , Titian and Tintoretto .  The publication of two treatises by Leone Battista Alberti , De Pitura ( On Painting ) , 1435 , and De re aedificatoria ( Ten Books on Architecture ) , 1452 .

neg: Paintings attributed to Caravaggio A number of paintings have been attributed from time to time to the Italian artist Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio ( 1571 -- 1610 ) , but are no longer generally accepted as genuine . Immensely popular in his own lifetime , he fell into neglect almost immediately upon his death , with the result that now , four hundred years later , it 's often extremely difficult to distinguish works by the master from copies or from original creations by his most gifted followers .

neg: Master of the Prado Adoration of the Magi The Master of the Prado Adoration of the Magi was a Netherlandish painter active between c. 1475 -- 1500 whose identity is now lost . He is thought to have originated from the southern Netherlands and is known for his vibrant colourisation in panels depicting scenes from the infancy of Christ , he is thought to have been a pupil of Rogier van der Weyden , and is named after a copy of the `` Adoration of the Magi '' panel from that painter 's St Columba Altarpiece . Although the Magi became a popular topic for northern painters in the second half of the 15th century and the Columba altarpiece was widely copied , the master is associated with van der Weyden 's workshop because the copy is so close , it is believed he must have had access to a reproduction of the underdrawing .   Six panels are today associated to the master ; five showing scenes from christ 's infancy and one of Saint Francis . Two panels now in the Burrell Collection in Glasgow , are assumed to be wings of a lost portable triptych . All six works had been attributed by art historian Georges Hulin de Loo to Hans Memling , a painter strongly influenced by van der Weyden ( although this would date the work as 1464 at latest ) . de Loo noted the Glasgow panel 's `` elegance and sensitivity '' , and speculated that they were based on proto-types by van der Weyden , perhaps finished by Memling under van der Weyden 's supervision . However this view was eventually rejected and the panels attributed to an unidentified painter , who had apprenticed under van der Weyden and was in contact and influenced by Memling and the Master of the Legend of St. Catherine , who is sometimes though to have been Pieter van der Weyden , Rogier 's son .

neg: Ecce Homo (Caravaggio) Ecce Homo ( c. 1605/6 or 1609 according to John Gash ) is a painting by the Italian master Caravaggio . It is housed in the Palazzo Bianco , Genoa . According to Giambatista Cardi , nephew of the Florentine artist Cigoli , Cardinal Massimo Massimi commissioned paintings on the theme of Ecce Homo from three artists , Cigoli , Caravaggio , and Domenico Passignano , without informing the artists of the multiple commissions . Cardi claimed the cardinal liked Cigoli 's version best .   The scene is taken from the Gospel of ( John 19 ) : Pontius Pilate displays Christ to the crowd with the words , `` Ecce homo ! '' ( `` Behold the man '' ) . Caravaggio 's version of the scene combined Pilate 's display with the earlier moment of Christ , already crowned with thorns , mockingly robed like a king by his tormentors . Massimi already possessed a Crowning with Thorns , by Caravaggio , and Ecce Homo may have been intended as a companion piece . Stylistically , the painting displays characteristics of Caravaggio 's mature Roman-period style . The forms are visible close-up and modelled by dramatic light , the absence of depth or background , and the psychological realism of , the torturer , who seems to mix sadism with pity . Pilate , in keeping with tradition , is shown as a rather neutral and perhaps almost sympathetic figure .  The contract for Ecce Homo was signed on 25 June 1605 , with the painting to be delivered in August . Whether Caravaggio met his deadline is uncertain , as by July he was arrested for attacking the house of Laura della Vecchia and her daughter , Isabella . Friends stood bail for him , but on 29 July he was in far more serious trouble for assaulting the notary Mariano Pasqualone over a well-known courtesan Lena and Caravaggio 's model who is referred to by Pasqualone in the police complaint as `` Michelangelo 's ( i.e. Caravaggio 's ) girl '' . Consequently , Caravaggio fled to Genoa until the end of August . He continued to be in trouble with the law throughout the year , with a complaint against him in September for throwing stones at his landlady 's house , and a mysterious incident in October in which he was wounded in the throat and ear ( Caravaggio claimed he had fallen on his own sword ) . In May 1606 he fled Rome again after killing Ranuccio Tomassoni in a duel , and he was not settled in Naples until the latter part of that year . Cigoli 's Ecce Homo was not painted until 1607 , and clearly attempts to mimic Caravaggio 's style , suggesting that Massimi had not yet received his Caravaggio and was turning elsewhere . It is instructive to compare the two paintings : Caravaggio , unlike Cigoli , has dropped the convention of showing Christ 's torturer as a grotesque , and has shown Pilate dressed as a 17th-century official .

neg: San Giovenale Triptych The San Giovenale Triptych or Cascia Altarpiece is a 1422 painting by Italian Renaissance artist Masaccio , housed in a museum behind the church of Cascia di Reggello , in the Roman Pieve of San Pietro di Cascia near Florence , Italy .   This work , discovered in 1961 in a state of poor preservation , in the loft of a house adjacent to the small chapel of San Giovenale two kilometres from Cascia by Juliana Arnetoli . It had allegedly been hidden there before the Second World War to prevent the occupying German army from removing it from the chapel . It is probably the first original work by Masaccio . It was commissioned by the Florentine family of Castellani for the Basilica of San Lorenzo , and was later moved to San Giovenale .   It is dated at the bottom in modern humanist letters , the first work in Europe not inscribed in Gothic characters , which read , `` ANNO DOMINI MCCCCXXII A DI VENTITRE D'AP -LSB- RILE -RSB- '' ( April 23 , 1422 ) . The central panel shows the Madonna enthroned with two angels and the child Jesus eating some vine , as a symbol of the Eucharist . The halo of the Madonna bears the Shahada written backwards . The left panel depicts Saint Bartholomew and Saint Blaise , and the right panel depicts Saint Anthony and Saint Juvenal ( Giovenale ) . The left and right panels show a marked influence of 14th century models , while the complex perspective of the centre panel would have been something new for its time . Also , the use of three-dimensional solidity makes the painting revolutionary for its time .

neg: Church of Sant' Andrea, Pistoia The Church of Sant ' Andrea , Pistoia , ( Pieve di Sant ` Andrea ) is a church in Pistoia , Tuscany , central Italy that serves as a `` pieve '' or place that congregations from surrounding village churches use for baptism . It is dedicated to St. Andrew the Apostle , and includes the famous Pulpit of Sant ' Andrea by Giovanni Pisano . The church probably dates from as early as the 8th century , though in a smaller size . In the 12th century it was extended in length .   The façade shows the typical bichrome marble decoration of the Pistoiese Romanesque style , executed in the mid-12th century by Gruamonte and his brother Adeodatus , who was also responsible for the sculptures and for the portal 's architrave . The latter depicts the `` Journey of the Magi '' , a rare theme whose use here derives from the fact that the church was located on the Via Francigena , by which , in the Middle Ages , the pilgrims reached Rome from France . The decorated capitals are by a Master Henry , while the small statue of St. Andrew in the lunette over the portal is reminiscent of Giovanni Pisano 's style .   In the late 15th century the upper façade was finished and the central nave was vaulted . The frescoes in the apse date to 1506 , executed by Bernardino del Signoraccio . Today only the central part , with the Father supported by Four Angels , survives . The altars in the aisles were added in the 17th century , with paintings by artists such as Cristofano Allori and Girolamo Scag .

neg: Master of the Beffi Triptych The Master of the Beffi Triptych ( active circa 1390 -1425 ) is an unknown Italian painter of the early 15th century in the region of Abruzzo .   The main work of the artists is a three part wooden panel derived from the church of Santa Maria del Ponte in the town of Beffi , now a frazione of Acciano . The central panel depicts an Enthroned Madonna and Child , while the right panel depicts a Nativity with donor and the left panel depicts an Assumption and Heavenly Coronation of the Virgin .   There is speculation about the identity of the painter . He appears to have been influenced by the style of the Sienese painter Taddeo di Bartolo ( 1362 -- 1422 ) . In addition to panel paintings , this anonymous painter also illuminated manuscripts and created frescoes in the region . He is identified as the painter of the vault and the walls of the presbytery of the Church of San Silvestro in L'Aquila in the early 1400s .   After the earthquake destroyed the National Museum of Abruzzo in the city of L'Aquila , The Beffi Triptych was loaned in 2010 to the Getty Museum in California .

neg: Michelangelo Naccherino Michelangelo Naccherino ( Florence , March 6 , 1550 - Naples , February , 1622 ) was an Italian sculptor and architect , active mainly in the Kingdom of Naples , Italy .   He supposedly was a pupil of Giambologna in Florence , but due to disagreements moved to the Kingdom of Naples in 1573 . From 1575-77 , he was active in Palermo , where he worked alongside Camillo Camilliani in the construction of the Fontana Pretoria , a project of Francesco Camilliani .   Returning to Naples , he completed a number of Mannerist projects such as the tomb of Alfonso Sanchez ( 1588 -- 89 ) in the Basilica of Santissima Annunziata Maggiore and a crucifix ( 1599 ) for the church of San Carlo all ` Arena . He also completed a Madonna della Sanità for the church of Santa Maria della Sanità in the zone of Materdei , where he lived .   In the early 1600s , he participated in a variety of projects , including the Fontana di Santa Lucia and the Fontana del Gigante ( along with Pietro Bernini ) . In 1607 , he submitted a design for the Cappella del Tesoro di San Gennaro , in which he competed against Ceccardo Bernucci , Giovan Battista Cavagna , Giulio Cesare Fontana , Giovan Giacomo Di Conforto , Dionisio Nencioni di Bartolomeo , Francesco Grimaldi , and Giovanni Cola di Franco . The latter two won the competition .   In 1612 , he completed some tombs in the church of Santo Stefano in Capri , and in 1616 , he returned to Florence to sculpt an `' Adam and Eve '' for the Boboli Gardens .

neg: Communion of the Apostles (Barocci) The Communion of the Apostles , or Institution of the Eucharist is a painting of the Last Supper by Federico Barocci located at Santa Maria sopra Minerva in Rome . It was commissioned for the family chapel of Pope Clement VIII Aldobrandini and completed between 1603 and 1608 .   It was most likely the sight of Barocci 's Presentation of the Virgin in the Chiesa Nuova at its unveiling in 1603 that led to the commission of the Communion four months later . On 13 August 1603 the pope communicated with the minister to Francesco Maria II della Rovere , duke of Urbino , Giacomo Sorbolongo , about acquiring an altarpiece from Barocci . At this time the Cavaliere d'Arpino was the pope 's most important artist ; the letter goes on to ask that d'Arpino not be told of the commission .   The commission was completed entirely in Urbino and efforts were made to supply Barocci with extensive information about the contextual chapel , which was frescoed by Cherubino Alberti with a Triumph of the Holy Cross . Gian Pietro Bellori wrote that the pope was supplied with preparatory sketches . The pope sought the removal of Satan from the original design , and thereafter asked that it depict a night scene .   Barocci quotes from Raphael 's School of Athens by inserting the portrait of Heraclitus , which many believe is a portrait of Michelangelo . Significantly , he depicts Judas Iscariot using Michelangelo 's portrait . To an audience familiar with this association , this would have been taken as particularly strong commentary on the status of the Michelangelo . Furthermore , by directly quoting from Raphael , who was Michelangelo 's antithesis and favoured by the Clementine church , Barocci , and by implication Pope Clement VIII , inserted a comment on the relative status of the two artists within the church of the time .   Barocci asked 1,500 scudi for the altarpiece . The fee undoubtedly was influenced by the number of figures . At the same point in his career ( 1604 ) , he had accepted 300 scudi for a much simpler Crucifixion ( Museo del Prado , Madrid ) .

neg: Niccolò dell'Arca Niccolò dell ' Arca ( c. 1435-1440 -- 2 March 1494 ) was an Italian Early Renaissance sculptor . He is also known under the names Niccolò da Ragusa , Niccolò da Bari and Niccolò d'Antonio d'Apulia . The surname `` dell ' Arca '' refers to his contribution to the Arca di San Domenico .   The place and the year of his birth are not certain . He was probably born in Apulia , perhaps in Bari , and then most likely lived for some time in Dalmatia . According to C. Gnudi ( see ref . ) he received training there by the Dalmatian sculptor Giorgio da Sebenico .   The Burgundian elements in his sculpture are attributed by some art historians to his presumed participation in the triumphal arch of the Castel Nuovo in Naples during the 1450s ( where he would have known the Catalan sculptor Guillem Sagrera and would be influenced by his style ) .   Others , rejecting his training in Naples , contend instead that he travelled to France in the late 1460s . According to them , his further training then allegedly took place in Siena , influenced by the works of Jacopo della Quercia and Donatello .   He was mentioned for the first time in September 1462 in Bologna as Maestro Nicolò da Puglia , a `` master of terracotta figures '' . This probably refers to the `` Compianto sul Cristo morto '' , terracotta group in the Sanctuary of Santa Maria della Vita in Bologna ( also mentioned in a Bull of 1464 by Pope Paul II ) . A life-size group of six separate figures stand lamenting in a semicircle around the dead Christ in a lying posture . The dramatic pathos , the expressions of grief and torment of the figures is intensified by the realism of their dramatic facial details . However the date of this innovative contribution to Renaissance sculpture is uncertain . Instead of c. 1460 , some date it between 1485 and 1490 .   In 1469 he got the commission of an ambitious new addition on the Arca di San Domenico : a spiral superstructure and several free-standing figures on top of the sarcophagus . This sarcophagus with the remains of Saint Dominic had been sculpted two centuries before by Nicola Pisano and his workshop ( between 1265 and 1267 ) . It had been completed by lapo , Arnolfo di Cambio and fra Guglielmo Agnelli . Niccolò dell ' Arca added an elaborate spire with an impressive statue of `` God the Father '' on top of a candelabrum , held by two putti and four dolphins , all covered with festoons with fruit . On the cornice at its base is in the middle a small Pietà , flanked by two angels , while on the four corners stand the four Evangelists in oriental dress . The lower part of the superstructure is surrounded by free-standing figures : the Patron Saints of Bologna ( Saint Francis of Assisi ) , San Petronio ( began by Niccolò but finished by young Michelangelo in 1494 ) , Saint Dominic and Saint Florian . On the back stand St Anne , St John the Baptist ( sculpted by Girolamo Cortellini in 1539 ) , San Procolo and San Vitale . Niccolò also added the Candlestick-holding Angel on the left side of the altar slab ( the one on the right side is by Michelangelo ) .   Niccolò dell ' Arca worked on this masterpiece between 1469 and 1473 , leaving it unfinished . He probably continued intermittently at it until his death . Art critics see in this masterpiece a blend of influences : Burgundian , Florentine and non-Tuscan ( such as details in clothing ) . The way these statuettes express their emotions and the patterns in their dresses and hair evoke the style of Jacopo della Quercia .   Some other important works include the terracotta bust of Saint Dominic ( 1474 ) ( in the museum of the Basilica of San Domenico in Bologna ) , a marble statue of St. John the Baptist ( in the Escorial in Madrid ) and the terracotta figure of Saint Monica ( c. 1478-1480 ) ( Museum Palace in Modena ) .   Also notable is the terracotta high relief of Madonna di Piazza ( 1478 ) on the wall of the Palazzo Comunale in Bologna . In the marked drapery folds is seen the influence of Jacopo della Quercia and also traces of the dynamic naturalism of his contemporary Andrea del Verrocchio .

neg: Salisbury Cathedral from the Bishop's Grounds Salisbury Cathedral from the Bishop 's Grounds is an 1823 painting by the nineteenth-century landscape painter John Constable ( 1776 -- 1837 ) . This image of Salisbury Cathedral , one of England 's most famous medieval churches , is one of his most celebrated works , and was commissioned by one of his closest friends , John Fisher , The Bishop of Salisbury .   Constable visited Salisbury in 1820 and made a series of oil sketches of the cathedral , which served as the model for this composition . The artist selected a viewpoint from the bishop 's garden and included figures of Dr. Fisher and his wife at the bottom left . Following its exhibition at the 1823 Royal Academy , Constable observed : `` My Cathedral looks very well ... It was the most difficult subject in Landscape I ever had upon my Easel . I have not flinched at the work of the windows , buttresses , & c. - but I have as usual made my escape in the Evanescence of the Chiaro-Oscuro '' . His patron took exception to the dark cloud over the cathedral , and when he commissioned a smaller replica , requested `` a more serene sky '' .   The painting embodies the full range of qualities of a quintessentially British landscape painting -- the clouds , trees , a water meadow , cattle drinking at the edge of the pasture and the glorious architecture of a medieval cathedral -- but all on a human scale . Paintings like this one have so conditioned our view of rural Britain that it is now difficult to imagine a time when the countryside and country life were not held in such high regard .   A version of the painting also resides at the Frick Collection in New York City . It is slightly different in that it shows different weather and hence light . Whereas the London version depicts the cathedral with an overcast sky , the version in the Frick shows the cathedral with a clear , bright sky .   A small version of the painting resides at the Huntington Library in San Marino , California . John Fisher gave it to his daughter as a wedding present .   There is an earlier , homonymous version ( 1821-1822 ) of this painting at São Paulo Museum of Art in São Paulo . It is said that Fisher , seeing its sombre and grave colors , disliked it and asked for a happier , lighter one .


query: L.A. Guns is a musical group.

pos: L.A. Guns L.A. Guns are an American hard rock band from Los Angeles , California , formed in 1983 . As of 2014 , the lineup consists of Phil Lewis ( lead vocals , rhythm guitar ) , Steve Riley ( drums , percussion , backing vocals ) , Kenny Kweens ( bass guitar , backing vocals ) , and Michael Grant ( lead guitar , backing vocals ) . The first incarnation of the group was formed by Tracii Guns in 1983 and merged with fellow Los Angeles group Hollywood Rose to form Guns N ' Roses in 1984 . In 1985 , the group was reformed by Guns and singer Paul Black adding Mick Cripps and Nickey Alexander . Black would soon be replaced by former Girl singer Phil Lewis while former Faster Pussycat bassist Kelly Nickels was added to the group . Later , Alexander would be replaced by former W.A.S.P. drummer Steve Riley with this being known as the `` classic lineup '' of L.A. Guns . They achieved moderate chart success in the late 1980s and early 1990s . However , the group went through numerous lineup changes ( with Riley being the most consistent member ) and failed to regain mainstream attention .   The `` classic lineup '' of the group would reunite in 1999 and began recording new material . However , the group continued to change lineups and Guns eventually left to form the hard rock supergroup Brides of Destruction with Nikki Sixx of Mötley Crüe in 2002 . L.A. Guns continued without Guns , bringing in guitarist Stacey Blades , however , following his decision to put Brides of Destruction on hiatus in 2006 , Guns formed The Tracii Guns Band . The group 's lineup consisted of former L.A. Guns members Black , Alexander as well as Jeremy Guns ( though the lineup would eventually change ) , with the group eventually changing their name to L.A. Guns . Both groups continued to record and tour under the L.A. Guns moniker until 2012 , when the Tracii Guns led version of the group disbanded .   To date , L.A. Guns has released ten studio albums -- L.A. Guns ( 1988 ) ; Cocked & Loaded ( 1989 ) ; Hollywood Vampires ( 1991 ) ; Vicious Circle ( 1995 ) ; American Hardcore ( 1996 ) ; Shrinking Violet ( 1999 ) ; Man in the Moon ( 2001 ) ; Waking the Dead ( 2002 ) ; Tales from the Strip ( 2005 ) ; and Hollywood Forever ( 2012 ) , two extended plays -- Cuts ( 1992 ) ; Wasted ( 1998 ) as well as a number of live and compilation albums .

neg: The Untouchables (Los Angeles band) The Untouchables are a soul/mod revival band from the Silver Lake , Los Angeles , California area . Described by original lead singer Kevin Long as `` mods who played ska music , '' The Untouchables are credited with being America 's first ska band .   They formed in 1981 as part of the embryonic L.A. mod revival , after being inspired by the ska revival/punk rock band The Boxboys . Since some could n't play instruments , they either hastily learned , or became vocalists . The original lineup included : Kevin Long ( vocals ) , Chuck Askerneese ( vocals ) , Terry Ellsworth ( rhythm guitar ) , Clyde Grimes ( guitar ) , Rob Lampron ( drums ) , Herman Askerneese ( bass ) and Jerry Miller ( vocals , timbales ) .   After a shaky start playing at parties , the integrated septet were eventually booked at the O.N. Klub ( known as the On to regulars ) . The band had guaranteed the club that they would pack the venue , and they did not disappoint . In middle of that year , they released their first ( ska-styled ) 7 '' single , copies of which were snapped up by local mods . Late in 1982 , the band began a stint as the house band at the Roxy Theatre . Terry Ellsworth left the band in the summer of 1983 , at the height of the California mod revival . Josh Harris was added on keyboards , Timothy Moynahan on trombone and Will Donato ( who became a successful smooth jazz artist ) started on sax .   Their second single , `` The General , '' became a minor local hit , despite poor distribution . The band performed `` The General '' in the 1984 comedy The Party Animal , and they appeared as a scooter gang in the movie Repo Man . In early 1984 , they were signed to Stiff Records . Concerts with The B-52 's , Black Uhuru , Bow Wow Wow , Red Hot Chili Peppers , Fishbone , No Doubt and X all over California gave the group a disparate following of whites , blacks , mods , punks , surfers and rockabilly fans , with the local performances drawing up to 1,500 people . The band also appeared in the 1984 film Surf II , performing `` Dance Beat '' , and 1987 's No Man 's Land , performing `` What 's Gone Wrong '' .   Vocalist Kevin Long ( who had named the band ) left in 1984 . Guitarist Clyde Grimes took on more vocal leads , and in 1984 the band recorded `` Free Yourself '' , which became very popular , especially in the United Kingdom where it was a # 26 hit in April 1985 . The band has gone through many lineup changes since then , and as of 2006 , only vocalist Jerry Miller remains from the original lineup .

neg: Dancing Cigarettes The Cigarettes are a popular post-punk and art band based in Bloomington , Indiana and active from 1979 through 1983 . They were part of a cadre of Bloomington-based bands that made an impact on the underground music scene . Other bands included The Gizmos , Zero Boys , Dow Jones and the Industrials , and MX-80 Sound . These bands established Indiana as an innovative breeding ground for punk , post-punk and new wave music in the late 1970s and early 1980s .   The group changed line-ups frequently , but typically consisted of singer/guitarist Michael Gitlin , bassist Emily Bonus , keyboardists and multi-instrumentalists Tim Noe and Jaclyn Oddi , drummer John Terrill , and saxophonist Don Trubey . More avant-pop than post-punk , their music was as eclectic as their members ' musical talents would lead one to believe , ranging from squonky Beefheart rock to bouncy Devo-esque new wave , as evidenced by the brilliant `` Pop Doormat '' , which opens with a deceptively anthemic synth line , then uses an ebullient bass and keyboard melody to underscore a disconsolate lyrical theme that wraps with the repeated question `` What am I waiting for ? ''   The band performed regularly in numerous venues in Bloomington , including Second Story , Bullwinkle 's , the Bluebird , and The Gentry Remedy . The band also traveled extensively and performed a venues throughout the US , including CBGB in New York , the Music Box in Kansas City , Mister Goodbar in Buffalo , Tewligans in Louisville , Space Place in Chicago , and many others .   The Cigarettes ' musical style is most frequently characterized by the repeated use of hard dissonances ( minor 2nd 's , major 7th 's ) in combination with angular rhythmic patterns . At times , dissonances are densely packed , as in the thick web of atonal clusters supporting the lyrics of `` Broken Windows . '' A more spacious use of dissonance is found in `` Simple Machines , '' clarified by an intriguing orchestration of the band 's various instrumental sounds . `` Puppies in a Sack '' and `` Piano Lesson/Smith Street '' share a similar `` additive process '' technique in the gradual building of their dissonant and polytonal textures . Combined with this predominantly modular organization of material is a powerful sense of linear motion frequently provided by the band 's lyrics . Often the emotive verbal scenarios create tenuous implications of direction which counteract the clouds of tonal density . In `` Puppies in a Sack , '' the relentless repetition of `` It was fun for a while '' evokes a resignation to nostalgia , which is arrested by the plaintive admission , `` But that was a while ago ! ''   The group recorded frequently but released very little material ( one 7 '' EP and a few appearances on compilations ) while they were a performing organization . Two CDs of their material have been released in the years since the band broke up .

neg: Idaho (band) Idaho is an American rock band formed in 1992 in Los Angeles , California , United States , founded as a duo by high school friends Jeff Martin and John K. Berry . The two had played in various bands and projects together since 1981 . They were eventually signed to Caroline Records in December 1992 by Brian Long , then released the The Palms EP and Year After Year full-length in 1993 . Martin and Berry switched off on drumming duties and shared in the songwriting . Idaho drew frequent comparisons to American Music Club , Red House Painters and Codeine due to vocal , lyrical , and instrumental similarities . Idaho toured the U.S. with similar-minded artists like Red House Painters , Half String , Low , and Cranes in 1993-1995 . Dan Seta joined as a multi-instrumentalist on Three Sheets to the Wind , the band 's third album , along with Terry Borden - bass ( later of the Pete Yorn band ) and Mark Lewis ( West Indian Girl ) on drums . Seta and Lewis had previously been in the band Pet Clarke together , along with Geoff Gans and former Let 's Active touring bassist Janine Cooper , who went on to join Downy Mildew . Idaho have played dates in Europe with Lali Puna and Dirty Three   Martin had recorded some solo songs ( including `` Never Back Again '' ) in 1984 in the U.K. , but a solo career never materialized . Idaho 's music is traditionally categorized as slowcore or sadcore . The band has released nine full-length albums , as well as numerous EPs and singles , dating back to 1992 . Idaho became primarily the vehicle of singer-songwriter Martin , who has performed the most recent of Idaho 's albums almost entirely on his own . To this day , he remains the band 's sole songwriter and principal musician . His foreboding four-string tenor guitar playing ( he has had several such guitars custom-made for him ) is a hallmark of most Idaho albums , though later releases rely more heavily on piano . 1998 album Alas featured vocals on a few songs by Melissa Auf der Maur .   Idaho 's sonic stylings range from existentially introspective songs to cathartic screaming , though their music falls in the first category the majority of the time . Their release , The Lone Gunman , often eschews the traditional song structure for more instrumental experimentation .   In December 2008 Idaho contributed their track `` Santa Claus Is Weird '' to an Indiecater Records festive compilation titled An Indiecater Christmas .   Martin has recently done music for U.S. television shows , films , and documentaries .   On January 9 , 2016 , John Berry died in his sleep .

neg: Characteristics of progressive rock Progressive rock is a term that refers to a musical style . The term was originally referred to as `` classical rock '' ( in which a band performed together with an orchestra ) , but the term 's use has expanded in recent years to include other fusions of music styles including jazz fusion , metal and folk rock musics . The term does not refer to one particular music style but to an approach that combines elements of diverse styles . Jerry Ewing , editor of Prog Magazine , explains that `` Prog is not just a sound , it 's a mindset . '' Dream Theater guitarist John Petrucci outlines that Progressive rock is defined by its very lack of stylistic boundaries . The advent of the concept album , plus the genre 's roots in psychedelia , led albums and performances to be viewed as combined presentations of music , lyrics , and visuals .   Bands abandoned the short pop single in favor of instrumentation and compositional techniques more frequently associated with jazz or classical music as part of an effort to give rock music the same level of musical sophistication and critical respect . Progressive rock abandons the danceable beat that defines earlier rock styles and is more likely than other types of popular music to experiment with compositional structure , instrumentation , harmony and rhythm , or lyrical content . It may demand more effort on the part of the listener than other types of music .   Musicians in progressive rock typically display a high degree of instrumental skill , although this is not always the case . Virtuoso instrumental skills are so closely associated with progressive rock that authors such as Bill Martin consider it as a defining element and exclude bands such as Pink Floyd from consideration . It is not uncommon for musicians to have received a higher-than-average level of formal training . Players from the genre frequently appear in readers ' polls of publications that cater to musicians .

neg: California Assembly Bill 962 (2009) California Assembly Bill 962 ( 2009 ) ( AB 962 ) was a gun control law in California , authored by Assemblyman Kevin de León , and signed into law by Governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger on October 11 , 2009 . AB 962 was set to take effect on February 1 , 2011 , but was ruled unconstitutional by Fresno Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Hamilton on January 18 , 2011 , in Parker v. California .   AB 962 would have required that all transfers of ownership of `` handgun ammunition '' be done in a face-to-face transaction , with the deliverer or transferor being provided bona fide evidence of identity of the purchaser or other transferee . As part of every `` handgun ammunition '' transfer , AB 962 would have required vendors to record and maintain , for a time period no less than five years : the transaction date , the ammunition brand and caliber , the processor 's name , as well as the purchaser 's driver license number , signature , name , right thumbprint , residential address , phone number , and date of birth . The bill also aimed to stop felony gang crimes by making it a misdemeanor to possess ammunition while associating with a criminal street gang .   On August 19 , 2010 , the NRA-CRPA Foundation Legal Action Project filed a lawsuit challenging AB 962 . The lead plaintiff in the lawsuit was Tehama County Sheriff Clay Parker . The lawsuit alleged that the mandates in AB 962 were incomprehensible , and that the definition of `` handgun ammunition '' was unconstitutionally vague .   On January 18 , 2011 , Fresno Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Hamilton ruled , in Parker v. California , that the definition of `` handgun ammunition '' was indeed unconstitutionally vague . The Court enjoined enforcement of the bill . Mail order ammunition sales to California therefore continue .
