Abstract (en)

Cites a materials-account relating to the work of Giovanni da Milano and his team in the Cappella Magna, Vatican Palace, Rome, as evidence that the introduction of cartoons into the practice of figural painting took place in mid-14th c. Rome, rather than in Florence around 1450, as had previously been suggested.
