Zerner, 1969, J.2, 196, no. 83, Zerner, J.6, 197, no. 84, Zerner, J.15, all Los Angeles (Ruiz), as by Juste, perhaps influenced by Rosso but graphically closer to Bandinelli.<\/p>\n

Zerner, in EdF<\/em>, 1972, 288, Figs., 289, nos. 353 and 354 (Paris).<\/p>\n

Eisler, 1973, 640, stated that these prints may reflect some lost series by Rosso.<\/p>\n

P. Ramade, in Renaissance<\/em>, Quebec, 1984, 325, no. 192, Fig. (Rennes).<\/p>\n

Schab, 1986, 89, no. 73, Fig., inside front cover (Zerner, J.15; Los Angeles, Ruiz).<\/p>\n

Davis, 1988, 194-195, no. 82.<\/p>\n

Fuhring, in French Renaissance<\/em>, 1994, 282-285, no. 63, Fig. (Paris, AA1 r\u00e9serve), and 285-286, no. 84 (Paris, AA1 r\u00e9serve), as Juste de Juste, a sculptor who was one of Rosso\u2019s assistants at Fontainebleau, and as showing in some plates undisguised sexual play.<\/p>\n

Boorsch, in French Renaissance<\/em>, 1994, 83, as in total accord with Zerner\u2019s rejection of Viset as the etcher.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While it might be possible to say that images of these etchings could not have been invented in France without their inventor having been aware of Rosso\u2019s kind of imagination, there is nothing in the prints themselves that suggests that they are specifically dependent on inventions by Rosso himself.<\/p>\n

On Juste de Juste, who worked under Rosso at Fontainebleau in 1535 and 1536, and Jean Viset, to whom these prints have also been attributed, see Renouvier, II, 1854, 185; Arnauldet, 1861; Herbet, IV, 1900, 318-322 (1969, 168-172); Adh\u00e9mar, 1938, 155, 2; Bousquet, 1964, 119, 123, 252, 249; Verdier, 1967, 109-111, no. 55, who states that there are nineteen prints in Paris (nos. 120-140), ten acrobatic compositions and nine anatomical figures; Oberhuber, 1967-1968, 184; Zerner, 1969, XXXIII-XXXV; B\u00e9guin, RdA<\/em>, 1969, 107; Zerner, in EdF<\/em>, 1972, 289; E.

COPY: London, I,7.105, 19.8 x 9.4 L (Fig.RE.25, Copy<\/a>).\u00a0 This seems to be a copy of an etching not included in Zerner, 1969, indicating that the original number was larger than seventeen.<\/p>\n

ENAMEL: Baltimore, The Walters Art Gallery, Inv. 44.189 (Fig.RE.25, Enamel<\/a>).\u00a0 Pierre P\u00e9nicaud, Six Acrobats<\/em>.<\/p>\n

LITERATURE: Verdier, 1967, 109-111, no. 55, with Fig.\u00a0 The composition is not specifically derived from any of the known prints but is similar to them, with the figures less thin and the three facing forward wearing loin cloths.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
