# Guardroom [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [UNKNOWN MASTER, Italian]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Fresco ## Commentary The porch and the courtyard loggia contain six large picture compartments extending up from the wainscoting to the round arches of the vaulting. Stepping into the porch, one sees to the right a lunette painted to look like the interior of a guardhouse or an armourers's shop. Hanging from hooks against its back wall are various highly realistic pieces of armour and weaponry. In the foreground a number of colourfully dressed people are passing the time around a long wooden table. ## Related artworks - [A Bishop Saint]() - [A Curious Scene]() - [Adam and Eve; Cain and Abel]() - [Adoration of St Mark]() - [Allegorical Portrait of Dante]() - [Altar frontal]() - [Altarpiece \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare]() - [Altarpiece of the Magi]() - [Altarpiece]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
