[Italian school] Attributed to TAVARONE, Lazzaro Port scene. 1580-Drawing, pen and brown ink, blue/grey wash, traces of black chalk, x 21,8 cm, laid paper, unsigned (some min. stains). Oval drawing with sailors disembarking and unloading a small ship. Two resting sailors are looking on. Probably a design for an applied arts piece, such as a glass roundel or a silver platter. The linear style of drawing and the rendering of the figures is close to the style of Lazzaro Tavarone (1556-1641). He was a student of the Genoese painter Luca Cambiaso whom he accompanied to Spain in for a commission to decorate the interior paintings of the Escorial. Ten years later he returned to Genoa where he had a thriving career as a portraitist and fresco painter. This drawing with its spare use of lines approaches the early drawings of Tavarone which still show strong influences from Cambiaso. Ref. Le dessin à Gênes du XVIe au XVIII siècle, in: Exhib. cat. Musée du Louvre, Paris, no. - M. Newcombe, "Drawings by Tavarone", in: Paragone (1981), pp. 44-
