A 1722 London print series in which Elisha Kirkall reproduced Raphael's Sistine Chapel tapestry cartoons, then held at Hampton Court, as chiaroscuro prints in red-brown ink for collectors, painters and drawing students. The plates imitate red-chalk drawing: crowded apostolic scenes staged like theatre, with hatched drapery, gesturing arms, stepped platforms and curtained backdrops, useful as monochrome figure groups, classical drapery studies and tonal crowd compositions.
