In 1964 I attributed the drawing to Bandinelli and thought that graphically it could be compared with his red chalk study for his copy of the Laoco\u00f6n<\/em> in the Uffizi (14785F)1<\/sup><\/a> and his red chalk Drunkenness of Noah<\/em> (Fig.Bandinelli, Noah<\/a>) in the same collection (6912F),2<\/sup><\/a> although these drawings are widely separated in time.\u00a0 Because of references to Michelangelo\u2019s sculpture of the Medici Chapel I thought the drawing was possibly done in the late 1520s.\u00a0 Ward catalogued it as Bandinelli\u2019s in 1982, indicating, thereby, that he did not believe it was by Rosso, but he felt less certain than I had that it was by Bandinelli, for whom he found it atypical.\u00a0 Hence, while the drawing is not by Rosso, none of whose certain drawings resemble this one, it may be reasonable to see the drawing now as Bandinellian and as by the sculptor or by someone closely associated with him.\u00a0 The verso<\/em>, known from a copy (see below), would seem to be by the same hand.<\/p>\n
