This curious group of caricatures (2014,7075.1-3) came into the collection with an attribution to Poynter because of the inscription on one of them, but he is not known to have produced this type of drawing. When they were taken off their mount, the verso of one was an envelope addressed to Philip Burne-Jones and another had a drawing of one of Edward Burne-Jones’s very distinctive ‘fat ladies’ – the term he used to describe his comical figures drawn for his own and his friends’ amusement. Their firm attribution remains a mystery, for now, but they have been placed with Burne-Jones's drawings for convenience. They do bear a faint resemblance to a group of pen and ink caricature profile heads by Leonardo in the Ambrosiana Library in Milan, as if they were inspired by these well-known works by Leonardo.
