"Guido Reni [...] charms us by his soft and harmonious colouring, by his touching rendering of grief, as in the " Ecce Homo," and by the delicate beauty of his female figures, especially Magdalenes. In the Dulwich Gallery is a very beautiful St. Sebastian."--A Short History of Art (1890) by Francis C. Turner |

The Louvre contains twenty of his pictures, the National Gallery of London seven, and others once there have now been removed to other public collections. Among the seven is the small Coronation of the Virgin, painted on copper. It was probably painted before the master left Bologna for Rome.
