• Resumen

  • The graphic oeuvre of Giulio Mazzoni is currently composed of only one unanimously accepted work, a drawing of "Truth Unveiled by Time" in the British Museum, identified by Philip Puoncey in 1955. In 1968, Peter Dreyer ascribed a further item to the artista from Piacenza, a sheet in the Kupferstichkabinett in Berlin with some sketches of vaulting and decorative elements. The present article sets beside these a drawing housed in the Uffizi (inv. no. 6626 F), formerly attributed to Jacopo Pontormo and currently classified among the anonymous works of the sixteenth century.

    The identification of this work as a preparatory sketch for the decoration of the so-called Sala dei Trionfi Romulei in the Palazzo Capodiferro Spada in Rome, discussed here, also provides an opportunity to contribute to the study of this complex Roman palazzo project.
