DescriptionDescription: The sheet bears traces of one horizontal and four vertical folds where the paper has been damaged, giving rise to rows of small holes. Laid down. The present attribution-instead of the traditional one to Cambiaso-is based on close similarities in style with a "Female figure" in the Suida-Manning collection, which is a study for one of the small decorative panels in the ceiling of the loggia on the main floor in the Palazzo Carrega-Cataldi, dated 1559. Our drawing has the same elegance in the figures as well as striking likenesses in details such as the manner of drawing feet. Provenance: Lanière (1588-1666; Lugt 2866) ; J.T. Sergel (Lugt 2339 b) [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 362]
