I was happy to see an old painting of San Gennaro at the Figli di San Gennaro’s 100th Anniversary Gala, held Sunday afternoon at the El Caribe Country Club. I’d long wondered what became of it after the sale and subsequent destruction of Most Precious Blood Church’s rectory in Little Italy in 2019. Someone told me it was the work of Donatus Buongiorno (1865–1935), though I can’t confirm.
