liwaliw Pages this month features the seventh volume or seventh of a series from some of the multi-volume or series titles in my personal library. The word September is derived from the Latin septem, which means "seven," because it used to be the seventh month of the ancient ten-month Roman calendar.
Uffizi, Florence is the seventh in the series Great Museums of the World, published by Newsweek and Mondadori. Page 81 shows a detail of the "Annunciation" attributed to Leonardo da Vinci. (Past attributions included Andrea del Verrocchio, Domenico and Ridolfo Ghirlandaio.) Online, Uffizi also notes "The Annunciation is generally considered to be one of Leonardo’s youthful works, painted when he was still working in the studio of Andrea del Verrocchio."
In the Roman Catholic calendar, 08 September is appointed feast day of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
