專家說明

As attested by the few sheets securely connected to his frescoes, Niccolò Circignani's drawing style in pen is rather dry, focused mainly on the outline of the figures, as shown in this drawing. The work can be tentatively connected here to a fresco of the subject in the chapel of Saint Paul in the Duomo of Città di Castello, similarly developed in a narrow vertical format. Circignani completed the fresco circa 1570, before moving to Rome.
