The print is cut and pasted onto this sheet in landscape orientation. It belongs to the third (MS.LAT.850) of the five Angelica's manuscripts "La scuola del cristiano" (MS.LAT.848-52) edited to Rome in 1833. The print seems to be cut a bit too close on the edges, which means that a small part of the print is lost - in the upper left corner and on the right side, there are some places where the print isn't neatly cut but seems to have ripped a bit.
