The set, his last large-scale publication, took four years to complete and was the first to depict a painted cycle in its entirety. According to the dedication page, Andreani worked after drawings prepared by the Mantuan painter Bernardo Malpizzi. Each of the nine scenes were printed with four blocks; the key block for outlines and separately carved blocks to apply the different shades of colour.
Florentine School. Saint Anthony of Padua miraculously healing the leg of a young man, circa 1480-1520, large scale pencil and sepia wash on sturdy laid paper, depicting Saint Anthony in the brown habit of the Franciscan Order, in an Italian town square, surrounded by a circle of onlookers including a standing and kneeling Franciscan monk, in the left foreground a standing halberdier, a passing horse and cart and others, in the right foreground a group of men in earnest discussion, with figures emerging from a church in the midground and a landscape with trees beyond, some repairs and lined with archival tissue, 44.7 x 58.5 (17 5/8 x 23 ins)QTY: (1)NOTE:This large scale drawing could well have been a preparatory drawing for a fresco or work on panel, although there are no signs of squaring up. The kneeling Franciscan monk could possibly represent the donor who may have commissioned the work. Anthony, the patron saint of Padua (1195-1231) miraculously restored the leg of a youth who had severed off his leg in a fit of remorse after kicking his mother. This many figured narrative representing the miracle and the measured responses to it, with its carefully distributed groups of figures, is articulated with clarity and gravitas. The group of figures to the right is particularly reminiscent of the rightmost group of three male figures in the circle surrounding Christ in Masaccio's Tribute Money of 1425, in the Brancacci chapel, Florence.
