DescriptionDescription: No watermark. Provenance: Count J.G. De la Gardie (Lugt 2722a) ; Gift to the Museum in 1973 This is a direct parallel to a sheet of the same size and technique in the Bremen Kunsthalle. Both display a strong influence from Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. On this account Fiocco dates the Bremen drawing to the period of Crosato´s closest contact with Tiepolo, i.e. c. 1755, when the latter founded the Venice Academy and extended membership to Crosato.
