[Footnote: In the original, the passage given as No. 1463 is written  
between lines 2 and 3 of this text, and it is possible that the  
entries in lines 3 and 4 refer to the payments of Jacopo Tedesco,  
who is there mentioned. The first words of these lines are very  
illegible.]  
[
Footnote 7: Al fattore. Il Fattore, was, as is well known, the  
nick-name of Giovanni Franceso Penni, born in Florence in 1486, and  
subsequently a pupil of Raphael's. According to Vasari he was known  
by it even as a boy. Whether he is spoken of in this passage, or  
whether the word Fattore should be translated literally, I will not  
undertake to decide. The latter seems to me more probably right.]
