Putti supporting roundels framed in decorative strap-work

XVI century. Wash, Pencil on paper.
Not on display

These two drawings, mounted together, carry a traditional attribution to Baglione (c.1575-1643/44), which is surely incorrect, if one compares the style which that of the St. Jerome in the Prado (D01532). The handling seems more reminiscent of certain drawings by the Parnese Girolamo Mazzola Bedoli (1500-1569).
