Drawing on paper made with ink, white lead and gouache; depicting the frescoed vault of the Gallery of the Eagles of the Domus Aurea. The perimeter strip is occupied by reserves inhabited by eagles and peacocks; in the innermost one there are grotesque decorations. In the central reserve, Ariadne is represented sleeping, abandoned by Theseus in Naxos, while in the lower and upper ones there are procession scenes and a votive offering, probably in Pomona. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
