It is most likely that this print is the one mentioned by Vasari.\u00a0 But as Bartsch correctly pointed out, Vasari is wrong in his attribution of its design to Rosso, for its design is after Primaticcio.\u00a0 The print is closely related to a drawing in the same direction by Primaticcio in the Louvre (Inv. 8533, pen and ink and red chalk, 31.2 x 43.5; Dimier, 1900, 427-428, no. 21; and Bacou and B\u00e9guin, in EdF<\/em>, 1972, 140, Fig., 141, no. 150, as Primaticcio for the painting above the fireplace in the Cabinet du Roi at Fontainebleau, 1541-1545).\u00a0 This scene was engraved by the monogrammist F.G. (Bartsch, IX, 1848, 25-26, 4; Dimier, 1900, 495-496, no. 69) and by an anonymous etcher of the School of Fontainebleau (Bartsch, XVI, 1818, 403-404, 71; Zerner, IB<\/em>, 33, 1979, 346); according to Bartsch, the latter is copied with some changes from the former.\u00a0 Enea Vico\u2019s print would seem to be copied from one of these prints.<\/p>\n

The connection of the print to Primaticcio\u2019s drawing in the Louvre (Fig.RE.28, Paris 8533<\/a>) clearly establishes Primaticcio as the author of this composition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
