under COLLECTIONS).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In his account of the career of Caraglio, Vasari lists the <em>Challenge of the Pierides<\/em> as that engraver\u2019s third work and the third work he engraved after Rosso\u2019s designs following upon the latter\u2019s arrival in Rome.\u00a0 There is no mention of any painting by Rosso.\u00a0 The painting in the Louvre, on which see <a href=\"http:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/catalogues\/rejected-paintings-sculpture\/rp-19\/\" target=\"_blank\">RP.19<\/a>, is derived from the print, and quite possibly from an impression made from Enea Vico\u2019s re-working of the plate (see below).\u00a0 A <em>disegno di stampa<\/em> made by Rosso specifically for the engraver was certainly the model for the print.\u00a0 The print should be judged from an excellent impression of it, such as the example in Vienna.\u00a0 Much of the light and dark values of the landscape are engraved quite like the similar passages in the <em>Labors of Hercules<\/em> (on which Zerner writes in \u201cCaraglio,\u201d 1972, 692, Pl. 219, 2-3).\u00a0 One must also note that while the print is very large, it contains many figures that are quite small, making this print unlike the others that Caraglio made from Rosso\u2019s designs, excepting the <em>Battle of the Romans and the Sabines<\/em>, which the engraver never finished (<a href=\"http:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/files\/2012\/04\/E.48-Paris.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Fig.E.48, Paris<\/a>).\u00a0 But impressions made from the unfinished plate show in the figures that are completed a technique identical to that of the figures in the <em>Challenge of the Pierides<\/em>.\u00a0 It cannot be reasonably doubted that the print is by Caraglio and that it was made after a drawing by Rosso that was executed in Rome.\u00a0 Caraglio would have followed it carefully, including its landscape, producing a print in the opposite direction.\u00a0 Evidence for what Caraglio had to reproduce in the way of landscape may probably be had from Perino del Vaga\u2019s <em>disegno di stampa<\/em> in the British Museum (5226-96) of <em>Vertumnus and Pomona<\/em> for the series of the <em>Loves of the Gods<\/em> (see <a href=\"http:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/catalogues\/engravings\/e-46-47-caraglio-loves-of-the-gods\/\" target=\"_blank\">E.46-47<\/a>).\u00a0 The original drawing by Perino was followed very closely and augmented only in detail where the technique of engraving required greater specification.<\/p>\n<p>The composition of the <em>Pierides<\/em> print is most similar to that of Rosso\u2019s <em>St. Roch Distributing His Inheritance to the Poor<\/em>, in the Louvre (<a href=\"http:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/files\/2011\/11\/D.13-bw-St.-Roch-Distributing-Fathers-Goods-Louvre.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Fig.D.13<\/a>), done most probably in the middle of 1524.\u00a0 In both, the figures are arranged in groups placed in the immediate foreground and then slightly farther back, but so placed that the groups do not really overlap.\u00a0 To the right of Apollo is a male figure bending over with his arms crossed over his chest that is almost identical to a figure in reverse in the upper left corner of the Louvre drawing.\u00a0 The woman at the far right of the print is very much like the woman at the far left, in reverse, in the copy of Rosso\u2019s <em>St. Roch Visiting the Plague-Stricken<\/em> in the Louvre (<a href=\"http:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/files\/2011\/11\/D.14BCopy-St.-Roch-Visiting-Louvre.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Fig.D.14B<\/a>).\u00a0 It is probable that the print was designed and executed in the second half of 1524, after the <em>Labors of Hercules<\/em>, but before Rosso executed the grand <em>Dead Christ<\/em> in Boston of 1525 or 1526 (<a href=\"http:\/\/pages.vassar.edu\/rosso\/files\/2011\/06\/P.18a-Dead-Christ-color1.jpeg\" target=\"_blank\">Fig.P.18a<\/a>), and before he designed the <em>Gods in Niches<\/em>, engraved by Caraglio
