DescriptionDescription: Inscribed at lower right in pen and brown ink: Cangiasi. Numbered: 1384. (Sparre) and 97 The traditional attribution to Cambiaso does not seem convincing and the sheet is ascribed here to his collaborator G. B. Castello. The drawing may have to do with the apse vault fresco in SS. Annunziata di portoria, Genoa, executed 1563-65. [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 361]
