Related motifs of God-the-Father amidst putti appear in the upper reaches of several altarpieces executed during the 1560s. The indication of the line of a po-lygonal cornice, however, indicates that this drawing was an early idea for architectural decoration, probably the vault fresco in the Zoagli Chapel in the church of Santissima Annunziata di Portoria.
