A photograph of a drawing by Raphael now in the Albertina, Vienna (inv. no.211). The drawing has occasionally been connected with 'The Stoning of St Stephen' from the Sistine Chapel tapestry series designed by Raphael in c.1514-15. It is now generally thought to be an earlier sketch of the same subject. A copy of the drawing is in the Louvre, Paris (inv. no.4125). For further discussion, see Bibliographic References.
