Author: Albert Elen

This is a folio from a hypothetical lost drawing book, a remnant of which is now part of an eighteenth-century album, called the Gozzoli Album, held in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. For a general description, see here.

In the hypothetical lost volume this page and inv. I 562 1 verso (former folio 31 verso) were originally opposite pages, judging from the same colour of the preparation that was used, the ornamental vines drawn on both pages, and the identical technique. This page therefore was former folio 32 recto. Floral ornamental motifs are also found on folios 1 verso, 7 recto and 18 verso of the Gozzoli Album.
