"Two of the studies in the top row [of the drawing directly above], the second and fourth from the left, were used by Pisanello, as Dodgson was the first to observe, for the two figures on the gallows in the background of the fresco of St. George and the Princess in S. Anastasia, Verona. The fresco is generally dated in the 1430s (Degenhart suggests that it was done between 1433 and 1438). Larger scale studies for the two corpses in the fresco occupy an entire sheet by Pisanello formerly in the Oppenheimer Collection, and now in the Frick Collection [at top]. Hill, who was responsible for the identification of the latter drawing, has pointed out that it stands closer than the Museum's sheet to the fresco. In the Frick drawing the figures are shown in the same relation to each other as in the painting and, moreover, certain modifications of costume and pose arrived at in detailed studies of the legs which occupy the lower half of that drawing are utilized in the fresco. A drawing in the National Gallery of Scotland [directly below], connected by Colvin with the S. Anastasia fresco . . . shows a man with his back turned and his hands tied, who, although he is only visible down to his knees, is evidently not hanging but standing on the ground. He differs from the men in the other drawings also in costume, and his hair is curly instead of straight."
