Catalogue Note

This can be compared with a number of figure studies by Flinck which, though close in style to Jacob Backer, are directly connected with paintings by Flinck, or are comparable in style to connected drawings: see, for example, W. Sumowski, Drawings of the Rembrandt School, vol. IV, New York 1981, cat. nos. 873-8, 884-6, 892-4, 915x-926x.
