=== Review of Francesco Botticini ===
I am writing this review under the assumption that the student has been working on the actual page since no article can be found in the sandbox or talk page. 
The opening lead paragraph is solid. You state who he is and give a brief overview of his life and famous works. However, the lead paragraph lacks citation. Additionally, the statement “recent years have resulted in the discovery of a considerable number of works that are certainly his doing” stands as a subjective statement without citation or evidence. 
The biography does a good job of following Botticini’s time spent as an apprentice to Neri di Bicci and later to Verrocchio’s workshop and to his own workshop in 1469 and finally to his death in 1498. However, once again the Bio lacks citations which are imperative. I see a list of sources in the talk/sandbox page, and these need to be incorporated into the article. Additionally, I noticed some filler lines such as, “The workshop experience was meant to be a way for Francesco to complete his artistic training with influence form highly talented artists,” a statement that is quite obvious and does not need to be stated. 
A few grammatical notes: You do not need a comma in the first line of the second paragraph of the bio following “July of 1460.” Also, the sentence, “Likely due to the competition of other talented artists present in the workshop, in the year of 1469 gives Botticini had opened up his own workshop, as documented in an arbitration document of the year” has an extra verb “gives” that needs to be deleted. 
You also did a good job of finding images for some his more famous works. However, some specific descriptions for works such as the Tabernacle of the Sacrament and Assumption of the Virgin would make your article more two-dimensional, as you focus more on his biography then his artistic output. 
Overall, I think it’s a good start. After citing sources, adding information on the paintings, and cleaning up some grammar, you will have a nice article in the making.
