This interesting sheet presents on the recto a free copy of a Roman sarcophagus with the Death of Meleager of the 2nd Century AD now at Wilton House in Wiltshire. The sarcophagus was in the church of Sant’Angelo in Peschiera from at least the beginning of the 16th Century. It was there that Pupini could have copied it during his Roman sojourn around 1524 (Master Drawings, op. cit., no. 3). On the verso the paper was left unprepared and the artist used it to practice calligraphy.
