Kusenberg, 1931, 115, 119, 208, n. 312, pointed out that the figure seen from the back at the left is related to one in the left relief on the West Wall of the Gallery of Francis I, and that the two figures at the lower right are related to two in the relief beneath the Combat of Centaurs and Lapiths<\/em> in the gallery.<\/p>\n

Adh\u00e9mar, 1938, 3, no. 8.<\/p>\n

Zerner, 1969, xxxiii, stated that two figures at the right are literally taken from a composition by Rosso, his Allegorical Scene of Rage and Madness<\/em>, or more probably from an etching of it [E.140].<\/p>\n

The draped figure with a hammer at the lower right is related to the figure of Tribulation in Rosso\u2019s Allegorical Scene of Rage and Madness<\/em> in stucco beneath the Combat of Centaurs and Lapiths <\/em>in the Gallery of Francis I (Fig.P.22, I S c<\/a>).\u00a0 They are in the same direction, but whereas Rosso\u2019s figure is female, Limosin\u2019s is a bearded old man.\u00a0 The man at the right with a shield in the print is slightly reminiscent of the female figure of Fury in the relief, both also in the same direction.\u00a0 An anonymous print (Fig.E.140<\/a>) shows this scene in reverse and is probably based on a drawing by Rosso other than the one that served the stuccoer in the gallery.\u00a0 As Kusenberg stated, the figure seen from the back at the left is related to the figure at the top of the foreground group in the relief on the left side of the West Wall of the gallery (Fig.P.22, WestWall, d<\/a>).\u00a0 There is no known print of this scene, although one may once have existed.\u00a0 Or again, Limosin may have known a lost drawing by Rosso for this scene.\u00a0 But it is possible that the entire scene of the etching goes back to another lost drawing by Rosso in which he used figures he had used before.\u00a0 However, it is impossible to judge to what extent Limosin was faithful to this supposed drawing.\u00a0 The man with a hammer is a strange figure in a Resurrection<\/em> and one may well wonder what Rosso or Limosin meant by it.\u00a0 As a woman in Rosso\u2019s Allegorical Scene of Rage and Madness<\/em> and in his Pandora and Her Box<\/em> (Fig.D.67a<\/a>), the figure represents Tribulation, but as a man it could not.<\/p>\n

The enamel follows closely the print in the same direction, although the radiance around Christ is not reproduced.\u00a0 The figures at left and right have been slightly extended to fill the oval format of the enamel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
