or Ugo da Carpi Italian
?After Polidoro da Caravaggio Italian
1520–50
Not on view
This print is from a scrapbook (album) containing woodcuts and chiaroscuro prints. It was presumably taken apart when it was acquired by The Met in 1922. On the front page of the volume there appeared a statement that this collection was made by the poet Samuel Rogers (1763-1855) and then bought by Angela Coutts (1816-1906) in memory of him at the sale of the collection at his house (28 April – 20 May, 1856). #1615a Rogers Sale. #146 Burdett Coutts Sale (Sotheby’s, May 1922). The prints from the original album have the range 22.73.3-1–22.73.3-161.


The print is after a drawing (Teyler Museum) by a member of Raphael’s workshop for the Vatican Logge. See Nicole Dacos, The Loggia of Raphael. A Vatican Art Treasure. New York, 2008, pp. 193–95; Carel Tuyll van Serooskerken, The Italian Drawings of the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries in the Teyler Museum. Harlem/Ghent/Doornspijk, 2000, no. 242.
