The Adoration of the Magi 1625-30 Guercino (Giovanni Francesco Barbieri) Italian While the drawing cannot be connected to an extant project by Guercino, he is known to have painted a number of nativity scenes in the cupola of Piacenza Cathedral (1626-27), namely the Adoration of the Shepherds. According to David Stone (1991), it could be a study for an unexecuted idea for this fresco cycle. There exists a large reproductive etching by Florentine printmaker Francesco Bartolozzi (1727-1815) after a now lost drawing of the same subject that once belonged to G.B. Tiepolo (Harvard University, Fogg Art Museum, inv. no. R11, 685). The etching contains many of the same figures in a similar composition, and the print exhibits a very similar handling of outline and tonal range, so much so that it could have been derived directly from Guercino's pen and ink drawing.Jacob Bean (1979) dated the drawing to the 1620s on stylistic grounds. However, a good example for comparison is the Vassar College s
