News from Italy that the Capodimonte Museum in Naples has acquired two works by the fifteenth century master Colantonio, who is most famously known for being the master of Antonello da Messina. The paintings of the Franciscan figures Morico and Leone join two others already within the museum's collection which were once part of the same polyptych that was dismantled in 1639.
