Catalogue Note
A bozetto for this composition was sold Milan, Sotheby's, 18 May 1992, lot 271. On the basis of photographs Nancy Ward Nielson accepts the attribution to Procaccini for both the present work and the bozetto. Professor Frangi, however, proposes that the painting may have been executed by a Genoese artist.
