DescriptionDescription: Laid down. Numbered in pen and black ink in lower right corner: 7 (struck out) and 497 (Sparre) The first author to associate this drawing with Ludovico was Philip Pouncey (1967). He considered it, however, the work of a follower strongly influenced by the master, an opinion shared by both Catherine Johnston and Catherine Loisel. Nicholas Turner, on the other hand, is prepared to accept the drawing as an original. Babette Bohn regards it as a copy [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 1447]
