A photograph of a drawing now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (inv. no.WA1846.219). The composition is related to one of the four ceiling paintings in the Stanza di Eliodoro in the Vatican, from which it nevertheless differs in a few details. The Oxford sheet resembles more closely an engraving of the same subject by Agostino Veneziano, an impression of which can be found at RCIN 852754).
