The Venetian master of narrative painting in the early 16th century, Carpaccio relied on drawings such as this one to study and refine individual figures, which would later be incorporated into his complicated painting cycles. This sheet is related to a painting in the Sala del Gran Consiglio in the Doge's Palace, Venice.
