Study for Nude Male Figures Supporting a Frame and Plan of the Ceiling Decoration of Palazzo Altieri, Rome 1625-1713 Carlo Maratti Italian During the pontificate of Clement X Altieri (1670-1676), his family palace on the Piazza del Gesù in Rome was enlarged and redecorated. The leading Baroque artist in Rome, Carlo Maratti was commissioned to paint the main room between 1674 and 1677, but only the fresco that fills the long, narrow central section of the vault was executed. The undecorated portions of the vault were to contain allegorical figures representing Religion, Faith, Divine Wisdom, and Evangelical Truth. A document for this never-completed project, this sheet was related by Walter Vitzthum in 1965 to Maratti's plan for the decoration of the vault of the Great Hall in the Palazzo Altieri; on the London market the drawing had been attributed to Pietro da Cortona. The nude male figures are studies for those that appear painted in grisaille and supporting the corners of the frame
