CASA G. VENDRAMIN (1530).
(i) Landscape with soldier and gipsy. (Since identified as the Adrastus
and Hypsipyle of the Pal. Giovanelli, Venice.)
(ii) The dead Christ on the Tomb, supported by one Angel. Retouched by
Titian. (This can hardly be the celebrated Pieta in the Monte di Pieta
at Treviso, as there are here three angels. M. Lafenestre, in his _Life
of Titian_, reproduces an engraving answering to the above description,
but it is hard to believe this mannered composition is to be traced back
to Giorgione.)
CASA ZUANE RAM (1531).
(i) A youth, half-length, holding an arrow.
(ii) Head of a shepherd boy, who holds a fruit.
CASA A. PASQUALINO.
(i) Copy of No. (i) just mentioned.
(ii) Head of S. James, with pilgrim staff (or, may be, a copy).
CASA ANDREA ODONI (1532).
S. Jerome, nude, seated in a desert by moonlight. Copy after Giorgione.
CASA MICHIEL CONTARINI (1543).
A pen drawing of a nude figure in a landscape. The painting of the same
subject belonged to the Anonimo.
CASA PIERO SERVIO (1575).
Portrait of his father.
It is noteworthy that two of the above pieces are cited as copies, from
which we may infer that Giorgione's productions were already, at this
early date, enjoying such a vogue as to call for their multiplication at
the hands of others, and we can readily understand how, in course of
time, the fabrication of "Giorgiones" became a profitable business.
