Notes
Watermark: none.
The drawing bears an old attribution to Tintoretto which is surely incorrect. Attributions to Andrea Michieli, called il Vicentino; Antonio Vassilacchi, called Aliense; and Alessandro Maganza have been proposed. A drawing probably by the same hand, catalogued simply as "Italian School," was sold at Christie's, London, 8 December 2020, lot 27.
