Presents and analyzes a document (1500) on the intarsia decoration of the monumental lectern (Verona, S. Maria in Organo) by Fra Giocondo. The document reveals that Fra Giocondo commissioned preparatory drawings. Observes that the only element for which Giocondo (an architect and "master of perspective") would have needed assistance was in the representation of the animals. Finds that the rabbits on the lectern are identical to those in Girolamo Dai Libri's altarpiece Nativity (Verona, Museo del Castelvecchio; formerly in S. Maria in Organo), and suggests that Girolamo furnished Giocondo with his cartoons. Observes the influence on Girolamo and on other late 15th-early 16th c. Veronese painters of the prints of Albrecht Dürer and Martin Schongauer.
