Author: Chris Fischer

This drawing was attributed to Fra Bartolommeo (1472-1517) in Samuel Woodburn’s seventh exhibition of drawings from the Lawrence collection in 1836,[1] and listed by Berenson in 1938 as Giovanni Antonio Sogliani (1492-1544).[2] Neither of these attributions is persuasive. As already remarked by Woodburn, the figure on the left refers to a painting by Correggio (c. 1489-1534), Venus with Mercury and Cupid in London, believed to be executed around 1524 and known from many copies.[3] Shearman recognized the figure on the right[4] as a copy from a drawing by Andrea del Sarto (1486-1530) in Paris.[5] This is preparatory for The Barberini Holy Family in Rome,[6] which he dated soon after 1524. Byam Shaw thought that the drawing might be nearly contemporary with Del Sarto’s study,[7] but this author finds it more likely that it was made in the later part of the century as proposed by Carel van Tuyll van Serooskerken verbally in 2019.[8] It may well be by a Florentine artist as suggested by the style, which recalls drawings by Francesco Morandini (1544-1579), called il Poppi.
