Notes

• Decorative border and an initial S with the Holy Spirit as a dove above a landscape
   
• These cuttings once belonged to the missal of Cardinal Giulio de Medici, commissioned sometime before he became Pope Clement VII in 1523. Painted by the illuminator Matteo da Milano (active ca. 1492-1523), the missal was stolen from the Sistine Chapel by Napoleons troops in 1798 and later came into the possession of the collector Luigi Celotti, who dismembered the codex and sold it as single leaves in 1825 at a major sale at Christies. Celotti is responsible for adding the cartouche identifying the missals one-time patron.
   
• This cutting can be dated to ca. 1513-1523.
