At left four shepherds with musical instruments seated under a group of trees; at right a hilly landscape with buildings

ca. 1517
Not on view
Bartsch and Passavant attribute the print to Domenico Campagnola. Since Galichon, many have recognized dual authorship, with the landscape by Giulio Campagnola and the figures by Domenico Campagnola. Dual authorship is supported by Zucker (see TIB.Commentary.XXV.2519.012). Kristeller suggests that the plate was left unfinnished by Giulio and inherited by Domenico (see, Kristeller no. 9.). Giulio's original composition is known from a drawing in the Louvre (No.4648). See Tietze and Tietze-Conrat, Drawings, no.579 and Washington, 1999, p.410ff.

On the verso there is an offset of another print, oval format possibly with figures.
