For those works that have already been taken from Rosso, their appearances here indicate my agreement with their rejections by others.\u00a0 Other rejected works can be found as copies in the catalogues of accepted works. The text of an entry argues against the attribution to Rosso or supports the rejection that has already been made elsewhere.\u00a0 A rejection by me has been made because the work cannot be sufficiently related to works that are unquestionably by Rosso.\u00a0 It does not mean only that the quality of the work is too poor to have been done by him, although this can be an aspect of the rejection.\u00a0 Unfortunately a rejection does not in most cases follow with a secure alternative attribution, or another attribution at all.\u00a0 If the situation was otherwise and the knowledge of sixteenth century Italian drawings was more extensive, then it is possible that many of these attributions to Rosso would already have been replaced.\u00a0 However, a rejection here, as distinct from another attribution that I suggest, is not meant as tentative.\u00a0 Included here are also paintings and drawings wrongly accepted as Rosso\u2019s in Carroll, 1964 (1976), and works that have continued to appear in other publications as his.\u00a0 A few short print entries deal with attributions to Rosso that can be dismissed with little argument. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Catalogues of Rejected Paintings (RP.) and one rejected work of Sculpture (RS.), Rejected Drawings (RD.), and Rejected Prints (RE.) present those works that I think have been wrongly assigned to Rosso in Barocchi\u2019s monograph and in publications thereafter.\u00a0 The paintings and drawings are listed alphabetically according to the name of the place in which [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"parent":1357,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11970","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11970","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11970"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11970\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11971,"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11970\/revisions\/11971"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11970"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
