Assumption of the Virgin (Moretto)

Assumption of the Virgin is a 1524-1526 oil on canvas painting by Moretto da Brescia, displayed as the high altarpiece in the Old Cathedral in Brescia.

Considered as the main masterpiece of the artist's youth, he was paid for it on 5 November 1526 according to the Liber bollettarum in the cathedral's archive[1].

History
gollark: It probably does, though, though they have a penalty due to theirs being more generalized.
gollark: Probably true, but *it's been written by developers better than you are at C*.
gollark: ```3. Python's object model can lead to inefficient memory access```
gollark: Plus there are Python compilers and JITs.
gollark: Well, again, generally interpreted ones might be slower, but really who cares, and it's language specific.
