Group of figures in a variety of postures (above); Child lying on the ground (below)

A facsimile of a drawing now in the Gabinetto Disegni e Stampe degli Uffizi, Florence (inv. no.1348F). Published in S. Mulinari, 'Disegni originali d'eccellenti pittori esistenti nella Real Galleria di Firenze...', Florence 1774, plate 2. Trimmed along all edges. The drawing, which is currently attributed to an anonymous Tuscan artist from the second half of the 16th century, copies the group of figures on the right of the so-called 'Morbetto', a composition engraved by Marcantonio Raimondi after Raphael's invention (RCIN 852188). It has been suggested that the drawing may be ascribed to Pomarancio (Matthias Winner). The child lying on the ground is copied from 'The Massacre of the Innocents', another engraving by Raimondi after Raphael's designs (RCIN 850413). For further discussion, see Bibliographic References.
