Set of two lithographic prints comprising:lithographic print of painting by Lorenzo Costa entitled A Lady with a Lap-Dog, originally painted c.1500-1505Probably purchased by Charles II (1630-85), recorded in the collection of Charles II at Whitehall c.1666.Oil on poplar panel. The style of costume and head band is typical of the costume of Northern Italy 1490-1505. Although the sitter remains unidentified there is speculation that she may be a member of the Bolognese or Mantuan Court. The left edge of the panel is bevelled at the back, an indication that suggests it may once have been hinged to form the right wing of a diptych, possibly celebrating a marriage. Were this to be the case, the lap dog would symbolise fidelity.Print size inches: 7.2 x 9.4 together with lithographic print of painting by Titian entitled Portrait of a Man, originally painted 1518 (c.1514-18)Acquirer Charles II (1630-85). Among the pictures presented to Charles II in 1660 by the States of Holland and West Friesland.Oil on canvas. Dated variously as from 1511 to early 1520s, the vestments and hairstyle worn by the sitter would indicate a date closer to 1513. Although the sitter is unknown, the pose with his finger marking a page in the book, suggests a writer or humanist the most likely of whom being the Neapolitan poet Jacopo Sannazaro (1458-1530) and is listed as such in The Queen`s Collection.Print size inches: 7.7 x 9.3
Lot 227
Set of two lithographic prints comprising:lithographic print of painting by Johann Zoffany entitled The Tribuna of the Uffizi, originally painted Created in 1777 and brought to England in 1779Oil on canvas; commissioned by Queen Charlotte.In the summer of 1772, Zoffany travelled to Florence to commence work on the Grand Duke of Tuscany`s collection in the Tribuna of the Uffizi. Built by Francesco de` Medici to a design by Bernado Buontalenti in 1585-9, this hexagonal domed room at the Uffizi Palace, displayed the masterpieces of the Medici collection. Zoffany brings into his painting other works and objects from elsewhere in the Grand Duke`s collection to create a symposium in accordance with contemporary taste. He includes portraits of Florentine connoisseurs and diplomats in addition to young Englishmen passing through the city on the Grand Tour.Print size inches: 8.9 x 7.1 together with lithographic print of painting by Luca Giordano entitled Psyche Honoured by the People, originally painted c.1695-7Acquired by George III, King of the United Kingdom (1738-1820).The first of a set of twelve surviving paintings on copper which illustrate the story of Cupid and Psyche, a tale of ill matched lovers, one mortal one divine, as recounted at considerable length by Apuleius in The Golden Ass (Books 4-6). Possibly commissioned by Carlos II of Spain or his mother, these late works date from 1692-1702 during which time Giordano spent at the Court of Charles II. Acquired by George III, they are recorded in the Bedchamber at Buckingham Palace (1792), but they are also mentioned in the archives of his father`s collection.Print size inches: 8.9 x 7.3
Lot 244
Set of two lithographic prints comprising:lithographic print of painting by Duccio di Buoninsegna entitled Triptych: the Crucifixion and other scenes, originally painted c.1302-08Purchased by Prince Albert - Queen Victoria`s husband, through Ludwig Gruner, from Metzger of Florence in 1845. (Payment dated 7 April 1846, with painting then thought to be by Fra Angelico for £190).Tempera on panel. This is an exceptionally fine example of a small domestic devotional work, depicting the Crucifixion; the Annunciation with the Virgin and Child enthroned; and St Francis receiving the Stigmata with the Virgin and Child enthroned. The careful balanced and sophisticated approach suggests that Duccio himself planned the painting, although he may have shared it`s execution with an assistant from his workshop. It was reframed by the Prince and placed in his Dressing and Writing Room at Osbourne House.Print size inches:9.4 x 6.8 together with lithographic print of painting by School of Jacopo di Cione entitled Triptych: the Coronation of the Virgin with Saints; the Annunciation` the Nativity; and the Crucifixion, originally painted c.1370Acquired by Queen Victoria (1819-1901) in 1846 through Ludwig Gruner from Warner Otterly and given by the Queen as a birthday present to Prince Albert on 26th August 1846.Oil on panels depicting the Coronation of the Virgin with saints; the Annunciation; the Nativity; and the Crucifixion. Once ascribed to Taddeo Gaddi, this beautiful triptych is now believed to have been created by an unknown painter of the Cionesque School, working closely with Niccolo di Tommasco, who himself collaborated with Jacopo and Nardo di Cione.Print size inches: 7.3 x 9.5
Lot 252
Set of two lithographic prints comprising:lithographic print of drawing by Leonardo da Vinci entitled The Head of Leda, originally drawn c.1504-6Acquired by Charles II, King England (1630-85). Bequeathed to Francesco Melzi; purchased by Pompeo Leoni, c.1582-90; Thomas Howard, 2nd Earl of Arundel by 1630 and finally resting with The Royal Collection by 1690.Pen and ink over black chalk. This is a study, four of which survive, for the head of Leda in the painting Leda and the Swan. The theme is based on the mythical tale of Leda seduced by Jupiter in the form of a swan. Leonardo demonstrates his attention to detail with the whorls and braids of the hairstyle, not dissimilar to forms created by water. The painting itself does not survive, having been destroyed in the eighteenth century.Print size inches: 6 x 7.2 together with lithographic print of painting by Guido Reni entitled Cleopatra with the Asp, originally painted c.1628Acquired Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales, 1st son of George II, King of Great Britain (1707-51). Acquired in or before 1749.Oil on canvas, the painting was hung in the Prince`s Closet at Leicester House. Executed in the late 1620s, Reni is known to have painted at least three other versions. According to Reni`s biographer Carlo Cesare Malvascia, Cleopatra was commissioned by his friend Palma Giovane (d.1628) for Boselli, a Venetian merchant, to be judged in competition with companion pictures by Giovane, Renieri and Guercino. Although Reni did not win the competition, Renieri purchased the painting following Boselli`s death.Print size inches: 7.7 x 9.3
Lot 256
Set of two lithographic prints comprising:lithographic print of drawing by Frederico Barocci entitled Head of a young Woman, originally drawn c.1582-84Acquired by Charles II (1630-85).Black, red and white chalk on blue paper. Olsen compares the likeness of this study to the Virgin in the Vatican Annunciation executed between 1582-1584 for the chapel of Francesco Maria II, Duke of Urbino, in the basilica at Loreto, which is more likely. His head studies are meticulously drawn using pen, wash and a variation of different coloured chalks, many hundreds of which survive. Noted for his altar pieces, Barocci was based in the small city of Urbino and many of his commissions were for provincial sites thus restricting his influence.Print size inches: 7.5 x 9.7 together with lithographic print of painting by Guido Reni entitled Cleopatra with the Asp, originally painted c.1628Acquired Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales, 1st son of George II, King of Great Britain (1707-51).

Lithographic print of painting by School of Jacopo di Cione entitled Triptych: the Coronation of the Virgin with Saints; the Annunciation` the Nativity; and the Crucifixion, originally painted c.1370Acquired by Queen Victoria (1819-1901) in 1846 through Ludwig Gruner from Warner Otterly and given by the Queen as a birthday present to Prince Albert on 26th August 1846.Oil on panels depicting the Coronation of the Virgin with saints; the Annunciation; the Nativity; and the Crucifixion.

Set of seven lithographic prints comprising:lithographic print of drawing by Leonardo da Vinci entitled A Standing Masquerader, originally drawn c.1513Acquired by Charles II, King England (1630-85). Bequeathed to Francesco Melzi; purchased by Pompeo Leoni, c.1582-90; Thomas Howard, 2nd Earl of Arundel by 1630 and finally resting with The Royal Collection by 1690.Pen and ink and wash, over black chalk. One of a series of designs for court festivities. The last years of Leonardo`s life were spent in the service of Francis I of France, a time of extravagant festivities at the French Court. Descriptions of the celebrations held in 1518 are well documented and the costumes described show a close resemblance to Leonardo`s designs suggesting that these studies were for costumes to be worn at this time.Print size inches: 6.7 x 9.8 together with lithographic print of drawing by Michelangelo entitled The Risen Christ, originally drawn c.1532First recorded in The Royal Collection c.1810.Black chalk. One of the most magnificent of Michelangelo?s designs; he completed more than a dozen drawings of the Resurrection, some possibly intended as preparatory works. However much care has been taken with this work, and such highly finished drawings were a specialty of Michelangelo, as seen in his presentation drawings created as gifts for his closest friends.Print size inches: 6 x 9.8 together with lithographic print of drawing by Annibale Carracci entitled Study for St. Andrew, originally drawn c.1603-4The great collection of drawings by the Carracci in The Royal Library came from two sources; the Albani collection, purchased in Rome for George III, King of the United Kingdom (1738-1820) in 1762, and Consul Joseph Smith?s collection, bought for the King in 1763.Black chalk, heightened with white. A study from the life for the figure of St. Andrew in the picture of the Crucifixion at Munich. The painting is attributed to Carracci`s pupil Domenichino, who would have used the detailed studies of his master`s drawings.Print size inches: 9.3 x 8.7 together with lithographic print of drawing by Pietro Perugino entitled Study for a Man in Armour, originally drawn c.1490-3First recorded in The Royal Collection inventory of c.1810. Metal-point on a prepared blue surface, heightened with white. A drawing based on Donatello?s marble statue of St. George (now in the Bargello, Florence). Perugino used the figure for his St. Michael in the altarpiece, now in the National Gallery in London, which was commissioned (c.1496) for the Certosa di Pavia.Print size inches: 7.3 x 9.8 together with lithographic print of drawing by Michelangelo entitled Man Nude, with Proportions indicated, originally drawn c.1515-20Acquired by George III, King of the United Kingdom (1738-1820), by c.1810.Two tones of red chalk. With only two exceptions, the drawings by Michelangelo in the Royal Library were first recorded in the collection of George III. This is one of Michelangelo`s most majestic studies of a nude, possibly intended for teaching purposes having the proportions of various parts of the body indicated. Throughout his life the artist was drawn to the investigation of musculature and form, as reflected in this drawing. Of his few pupils, Sebastiano del Piombo (c.1485-1547) was probably the most adept and it was possibly drawn for Sebastiano as a teaching aid.Print size inches: 6.2 x 9.8 together with lithographic print of drawing by Jacopo Tintoretto entitled Study of a Man, originally drawn c.1555First recorded in The Royal Collection inventory of c.1810. Black chalk or charcoal on blue paper, heightened with white and brown oil paint. The drawing is a study for the turbaned man placing a ladder against the cross in the centre of Tintoretto`s canvas, The Crucifixion (c.1560- 65). Now in the Academia in Venice, the canvas was painted for the church of Saint Severo in Venice.Print size inches: 5 x 9.6 together with lithographic print of drawin

Lithographic print of drawing by Leonardo da Vinci entitled A Man Tricked by Gypsies, originally drawn c.1493Acquired by Charles II, King England (1630-85). Bequeathed to Francesco Melzi; purchased by Pompeo Leoni, c.1582-90; Thomas Howard, 2nd Earl of Arundel by 1630 and finally resting with The Royal Collection by 1690.Pen and Ink on white paper. Recto: A composition of five heads depicting four grotesque gypsies surrounding the central figure of an old man wearing a wreath of oak leaves. Gypsies acquired a reputation for fortune telling and theft in the early fifteenth century and were ordered to leave Milan in April 1493. The drawing shows the figure on the right reading the old man`s palm - a section of the paper has for some reason been trimmed off at an earlier date - whilst in the foreground the crone on the left slips her hand beneath his arm to steal his purse. Verso: An inscription describing evil men.Print size inches: 7.8 x 9.8
