NOTES: This drawing is numbered XV/14 verso in the Burlington-Devonshire Collection. It shows a small sketch of a hand with an inscription 'carattere antico del Palazzo di Giulio Rom.o'. This could refer to the Palazzo del Te in Mantua, designed and built by Giulio Romano between 1524 and 1534, for the other inscription on the same sheet, 'pianta del palazzo di mantova' probably refers to the palace plan on the recto of this sheet.
