Etching, printed in brown | RCIN 851836

A facsimile of a drawing now in the Gabinetto disegni e stampe degli Uffizi, Florence (inv. no.1710E). The authorship of the drawing, which has been traditionally attributed to Raphael, is a matter of dispute. At the Uffizi it is currently catalogued as by Girolamo da Carpi. Published in 'Disegni originali d'eccellenti pittori esistenti nella reale galleria di Firenze', Florence 1774, no.134.
  • Added to the Prince Consort's Raphael Collection (c.1853-76)
