Alessandro Vittoria (Alessandro Vittoria di Vigilio della Volpa)

Alessandro Vittoria, a sculptor and designer of the Venetian Renaissance, is represented in this archive by a single sheet: a design for the decoration of a palace wall, drawn in pen and brown ink with brush and brown wash over black chalk. The drawing dates to the mid-sixteenth century, around 1550, and shows the ornamental vocabulary expected of a Veronese palace interior. Beyond this one example, the collection holds no further drawings by the artist.
