The Annunciation
c.1853-76Albumen print | 32.6 x 22.5 cm (sheet of paper) | RCIN 850483
A photograph of a drawing depicting The Annunciation now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (inv. no. WA1846.304).
This drawing was traditionally thought to be by Raphael or one of his pupils, but Parker (see Bibliographic References) attributed it to Tommaso Vincidor on the basis of similarities between this drawing and one by Vincidor now in the Louvre, Paris (inv. no 4269). The contours of the drawing now in the Ashmolean Museum are pricked, possibly to transfer the composition on a print executed in the same direction and size by Jacopo Caraglio (see RCIN 850484 for the print).
