Drawings Attributed to Andreas Coner. 63
drawn by Fra Giocondo {Uffizi 1535), bassa de termini chostattinum, but the
irregular fluting is not there noted.
d. ' in S. anastasia.'
A base extremely like this, but with slightly different measure-
ments, is shown by Giambattista da Sangallo (Uffizi 1804), basa
ionicka a pie del ponte a 4 chapi [Pons Fabricius] i tresteferi, and also
in Uffizi 2103 (by the same hand).
125. (95v) a. 'insta illos s. crucis.'
The reference is no doubt1 to the Santa Croce family, who are
referred to as 'nobilis familia ro(mana) de S. cruce' by Fulvio
{Antiquitates urbis, f. 84),2 and as ' quei di Santa Croce' in the translation
of Ferrucci (1588), p. 156". Prospero Santa Croce, who lived near
S. Maria in Publicolis towards the close of the fifteenth century, had a
considerable collection of antiquities mentioned by Fra Giocondo {Cod.
Chatsworth piv); but sixteenth-century writers speak of three members
of the family as possessors of antiques, and it is impossible to say which
of these is meant (Lanciani, Storia degli Scavi, i. 118).
b. ' in s. bartolomeo insul{a)e.'
This drawing shows one of two bases in the Church of S. Bartolommeo,
which support the third column from the entrance on either side of the nave.
They were also drawn by Giuliano da Sangallo {Barb. 15—locality not
indicated), and occur in drawing No. 3829 of the Kunstgewerbemuseum
(Fig. 6).
126. (96) a. 'in eclesia s. paulil
This base has naturally disappeared, having perished, probably, in the
fire of 1823. It is shown by Giuliano da Sangallo (Barb. 15), Giambattista
da Sangallo ( Uffizi 1804), Vignola ( Uffizi 1 812v), Fra Giocondo (Uffizi 2050),
and also by Piranesi {Magnijicenze dell' Architettura Romana, tav. ix, 1).
b. ' in domo canpolinisl
See supra, 105 d. The same base was drawn by Sansovino (Uffizi 4337',
ianni canpolind). It seems to be one of the bases of the cella of the Temple of
Concord (Canina, Edifizi, ii. tav. 36). The style of these drawings of bases
at first sight seemed to me not unlike that of an unknown and very rare
1 I owe this suggestion to the Rev. H. E. D. Blakiston.
