Moses strikes the rock at Horeb

A lithographic facsimile of a drawing now in the Albertina, Vienna (inv.no.14414), previously attributed to Giulio Campi. The drawing is now thought to be a copy after the fresco Moses strikes the rock at Horeb painted by the workshop of Raphael (c.1517-19) in the vault of the eighth bay of the Raphael Loggia in the Vatican. Lettered with the names of the printmaker and printer, and attribution of the composition to Campi. Published in N. Förster, Lithographirte Copien von Original Handzeichnungen berühmter alter Meister der Italienischen schule aus der Sammlung seiner Kaiserlichen Hoheit des durchlauchtigsten Erzherzogs Carl von Oesterreich, 2 vols., Vienna (Mansfeld et Comp.), 1829-34.
