• Resumen

  • The article presents an addition to the few securely-attributed drawings by Mirabello Cavalory, a "Figure study" for the "Lanficio" (Wool Factory), painted in about 1570 for the "Studiolo" of Francesco de' Medici (Florence, Palazzo Vecchio). The sheet is housed in the Gabinetto Disegni e Stampe degli Uffizi (inv. no. 15656F), currently attributed to Passignano. The handling of the male figure on this sheet suggests contact with the graphic style of Cavalori's colleague Girolamo Macchietti, but also shows a different way of analysing light at the expense of form. As well as attributing the drawing in the Uffizi, the autor also proposes Cavalori's authorship for the "Portrait of a Young Man" in the Saint Louis Art Museum, formerly ascibed to Michele Tosini and then to Francesco Salviati.
