Catalogue Note
Both compositions are based on engravings after the original paintings. Although conceived as a pair they have since been split and the former was last recorded in a private collection in Paris whilst the latter was in the Fleichmann collection, Zurich (see E.C. Montagni, L'Opera Completa di Watteau, Milan 1968, pp.108-9, nos. 133-4).
