In this drawing we see the ox and ass that in legend breathed on the newborn Christ to keep him warm; the animals, posed differently, are present in the right background of the Adoration of the Magi (Florence, Uffizi). Surrounding them here are studies in scratchy leadpoint of a horse or ass, its head down as if to graze; at upper left the bending rider twists his head to gaze upwards, perhaps at the Star of Bethlehem. The stains of burnt umber suggest that the sheet was in use in the workshop while painting was taking place. Melzi
