About the Item
Felice Pinariccio, known as Le Lasagna (active in Bologna during the 1560s-1570s)
Virgin and Child with Saint John the Baptist and Saint Jerome
Pen and brown ink, brown wash heightened with white on black chalk sketch,
41.5 x 28.5 cm
Provenance:
Private collection, bearing stamps at the bottom left and right of the mount, as well as on the reverse.
This drawing, attributed to Felice Pinariccio, known as Le Lasagna, a figure representative of the late 16th-century Bolognese style, illustrates a Virgin and Child accompanied by Saint John the Baptist and Saint Jerome in a structured and harmonious composition. The Virgin is enthroned under a canopy, holding the Child Jesus on her lap, while the two saints stand respectfully by her side, creating a solemn and serene scene. In the foreground, two cherubs, one gently petting a lamb, add a touch of innocence and humility.
The work exhibits strong influences from Parmigianino, Pellegrino Tibaldi, and Nosadella in the treatment of the figures, notably through the elongated elegance and refinement of gestures and drapery folds. The faces, particularly that of the Virgin, display a marked stylistic affinity with the figure of Saint Catherine of Alexandria in another drawing by Pinariccio held at the Louvre (Marriage of Saint Catherine, INV 8506). The similarities in the forms of hands and feet confirm this attribution to Pinariccio, whose works on paper remain rare and valuable.
The use of brown ink heightened with white, combined with delicate black chalk lines, reveals Pinariccio’s virtuosity in crafting a refined language that merges ornamental complexity with monumentality. This artist, a pupil of Lorenzo Sabatini and likely a collaborator of Pellegrino Tibaldi at the Palazzo Poggi in Bologna, embodies the Mannerist sophistication characteristic of the late 16th-century Bolognese school. The presence of this drawing in a private collection enriches the limited corpus of known works by Pinariccio and underscores his ability to transform religious scenes into theatrical compositions imbued with grace and mysticism.

Jan Goeree (Middelburg 1670 – Amsterdam 1731)
Interior of the Nieuwe Kerk, Amsterdam (c. 1724)
Red chalk for the architecture, pen and black ink, grey wash on paper
Composition reversed in preparation for engraving
25 × 17.5 cm
Watermark: Hunting horn, Churchill 318 (dated 1724)
Provenance
Private collection, France
Context & Attribution
Trained in the studio of Gérard de Lairesse, Jan Goeree was among the finest Dutch engravers of the early eighteenth century, celebrated for his architectural views of Amsterdam. This drawing is a preparatory study for an engraving of the same subject now preserved in a major public collection. The final print—slightly larger—closely follows the reversed composition of this sheet.
Subject
In the center of the Gothic nave, five bearers carry a catafalque toward a freshly dug grave—a tribute to the naval heroes often buried in the Nieuwe Kerk. This funerary motif, familiar from Dutch painting (e.g. Emanuel de Witte, 1657), evokes the vanitas theme and the transience of earthly life.
Technical Analysis
Goeree’s use of red chalk for the architecture and ink for the figures reveals his working method: the chalk lines could be used to produce a counterproof restoring the correct orientation of the architecture, while the inked figures remained adjustable before the design was transferred to the copper plate.
