All on vellum, outlined in bistre and washed with water-colours.
These drawings being somewhat irregularly cut, I have always
stated the dimensions of the larger borders. Formerly mounted,
together with sixteen drawings by different hands in an old scrap-
book, described by Mr. John Malcolm in 1876 as having been
brought from Italy three or four years ago and added to his collection
(C/. Robinson, op. cit. p. ix). On the first page of the said scrap-book
(now British Museum, 1895—9-15—1375) the inscription: Bologna
addi II Februarii 1617 Original! Belissimi disegni del pittore Mantegna
et altri . While in the Malcolm collection, the above fourteen drawings
were considered as being probably by Giovanni Bellini (ibid. p. 271).
Dr.Ludwig ascribes them to the glass painter Giovanni Antonio Licinio
da Lodi as he thinks their style to be analogous with that of the portion
of the stained glass window in SS. Giovanni e Paolo at Venice, which is
to that of the figure of the same Saint in Mantegna’s engraving, The
Risen Christ between Saints Andrew and Longinus (B. 6.)
