A crouching female figure

A photograph of a red chalk drawing now in the Biblioteca Reale, Turin (Bancone Cart. I/5 recto). The drawing bears an old attribution to Raphael. Ruland suggested that the drawing may be a study for a Venus (perhaps copied from the Antique), and pointed out the similarity with a crouching Venus in an engraving by Marcantonio Raimondi (RCIN 851685).
