A photograph of a drawing now in the Musée du Louvre, Paris (inv. no.4012). The composition corresponds with that of a scene in the border below 'The Death of Ananias', one of the ten Sistine Chapel tapestries designed by Raphael under commission of Pope Leo X.
The drawing has sometimes been described as a preparatory study by Francesco Penni or as an anonymous copy after the tapestry composition. For further discussion, see Bibliographic References.
