This alzatina appears to be by the artist John Mallet has called 'The Milan Marsyas Painter'.1 He identified a group of pieces which share similar stylistic traits to the inscribed tondino (depicting Marsyas) in the Castello Sforzesco, Milan (inv. 133).2 This anonymous artist's style is very similar to that of Nicola da Urbino's early work.

1. See Mallet, 'Xanto: i Suoi Compagni e Seguaci', in Rovigo, 1988, pp. 69-73, and figs. 6 and 6R.
