A photograph of four cartoon fragments (now mounted together) now in the Uffizi, Florence (inv.no. 410 E), where they are attributed to Giovanni di Pietro, known as Lo Spagna. These are preparatory drawings for a painting now in the National Gallery, London (inv. no. NG 1032), which is attributed to Lo Spagna and dated c.1500-1505. See RCIN 850235 for a photograph of the painting.
This painting was traditionally thought to be by Raphael, but it has been recently attributed to Lo Spagna or a follower of Pietro Perugno. It is based on the Agony in the Garden, a painting executed by Perugino for the church of San Giusto, Florence, and now in the Uffizi.Provenance
