• Resumen

  • The article faces the problem of a group of drawings attributed to Palma il Giovane in Erika and Hans Tietze's catalogue (1944); some other sheets, whose autography was never challenged in the studies, were added later to that group. All these studies, belonging to the collections of drawings of the Louvre, the British Museum, the Pierpont Morgan Library, New York, show an extremely bold pen line and strong contrasts of light and shadow in the use of wash; with a technique unrelated to Palma il Giovane. On the basis of a drawing in the Scholz collection, preliminary for a canvas by Alessandro Maganza for the Vicenza cathedral, the article proposes to attribute the whole series of sheets to the painter from Vicenza, in an early phase of his career.
