<\/a>1<\/sup> Gino Corti informed me that this document, now in the National Library in Florence, is listed in the printed Catalogo dei manoscritti posseduti dal Marchese Gino Capponi<\/i>, Florence, Galileiana, 1845, 181: Codice CXXVII (1), cc.7-14: \u201cInsturmentum rogatum Romae, tempore direptionis Urbis 1527, per acta Niciae.\u201d\u00a0 Although the original of this document was written in 1527, Corti suggested that additions were made to it, as in the one case of the listing of: \u201cBernardinus Caravajal, cum uno servitore.\u00a0 Die 4 Martii 1532 fuit facta quictantia pro dicto Bernardino.\u201d\u00a0 On the publications of this document, see n. 3.<\/div>\n
\n

<\/a>2<\/sup> This form of Rosso\u2019s name does not appear anywhere else in an Italian document, suggesting that it was given as a replacement for \u201cRosso fiorentino\u201d (see Rosso\u2019s signature in DOC.9<\/a>) by the seventeenth century copyist who derived it from the name that Rosso assumed or was given in France.\u00a0 Franklin, 1994, 134, 316, thought that its use here anticipates his name as it appears in France.\u00a0 But I doubt that this is the case.\u00a0 I might add that as we do not have the original document we do not actually know what name appeared in it.\u00a0 It could have been \u201cRoseo pitore\u201d as in DOC.9a<\/a>, which was interpreted by the copyist as Rosso Fiorentino, although that may not have been the case.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/a>3<\/sup> The partial transcript of this document was made from its publication in Buonaparte, Jacques, \u201cSac de Rome au temps du Pape Cl\u00e9ment VII de M\u00e9dicis, en 1527,\u201d in Mailles, Jacques de, Le loyal serviteur<\/i>, Paris, 1836, 185-215, where it is noted that it belongs to Gino Capponi.\u00a0 It was earlier published in J. Bonaparte, Sac de Rome.\u00a0 Ecrit en 1527<\/i>, Florence, 1830, 81-91, with the name cited on p.83.\u00a0 Gino Corti informed me that the text given by Jacques Buonaparte is correct, except for minor variants.\u00a0 The document is cited in Frommel, 1973, II, 346, with reference to the 1830 publication.\u00a0 The earliest publication of this account of the Sack, in Italian, seems to have been in Cologne, in 1756, but it may not have included this document, which does not appear in the French translation of the 1756 text published in Paris in 1809.\u00a0 A transcription appears in A. Corvisieri, Documenti inediti sul sacco di Roma nel MDXXVII<\/i>, Rome, 1973, 21-34.\u00a0 It is also cited in Pastor, 1898-1953, IX (1914), 409 and n. 2.\u00a0 It is mentioned in Franklin, 1994, 134, 316, 283, n. 53, who stated that the palazzo of Cardinal Andrea della Valle was in the Rione di San Eustachio.\u00a0 See also Charles Davis, review of B. Boucher, The Sculpture of Jacopo Sansovino<\/i>, in Kunstchronik<\/i>, XLVI, 7, 1993, 347, who identified Bonaparte as Luigi Guicciardini, and notes the use of \u201cuxor\u201d to specify some of the women as an expedient identification in the extreme circumstances of the Sack, making one wonder how accurate other identifications may be.\u00a0 The Palazzo della Valle, built by Andrea della Valle, is across from the church of S. Andrea della Valle at Corso Vittorio Emanuele, no. 101; on it, see Frommel, 1973, II, 336-354, III, Pls. 148-153.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
