Putto Bending a Bow. Artist: attributed to Giorgione (Italian, Castelfranco Veneto 1477/78-1510 Venice). Dimensions: 6-3/16 x 2-5/8 in. (15.7 x 6.6 cm) original sheet9-5/16 x 6 in. (23.7 x 15.2 cm). Date: 1477/78-1510.The steep perspective in which the putto is seen establishes that the figure must have been intended for placement high on a painted palace façade, and Pierre-Jean Mariette's addition of a base and surrounding niche for the figure would seem to indicate that he thought the putto could have served just such a purpose. Jaynie Anderson related the Museum's drawing to the extant fresco fragment showing a Hesperid Cupid from Giorgione's original decoration in the Fondaco dei Tedeschi (Saltwood Castle, Saltwood Heritage Foundation, Kent; see References: Anderson 1996, p. 312, fig. 173). Erica Tietze-Conrat was apparently the first to call attention to Vasari's mention of a similar figure on the façade of the Fondaco dei Tedeschi, "un angelo a guisa di Cupido" ("an angel depic

Copy after a Sculpture of the Sleeping Eros Based on an Antique Model (from Cassiano dal Pozzo's 'Paper Museum'). Artist: Giovanni Angelo Canini (Italian, Rome 1615-1666 Rome). Dimensions: 8 9/16 x 12 5/8in. (21.7 x 32.1cm). Date: ca. 1630.The traditional attribution to Canini is not implausible, for the artist made a specialty of drawn copies of classical antiquities and his manner of articulating some anatomical details such as the hands of the child are not dissimilar to his prepartory drawings for paintings. An ambitious project for a corpus of classical antiquities commissioned by Colbert for Louis XIV was cut short by Canini's death, though a good many drawings by Canini after medals and cameos were engraved by Etienne Picart (Images des héros et des grands hommes de l'antiquité dessinées sur des médailles, des pierres antiques et autres anciens monuments par Jean-Ange Canini, gravées par Picart Le Romain, Amsterdam, 1731).In contrast, Eloisa Dodero (Warburg Institute - Cassiano
