This artist's finished drawings in red chalk are well-known but there is less information about the more sketch-like part of his output. The closest parallel to this sheet would seem to be a Bacchanalia in the Uffizi. The stylistic similarities may not be entirely convincing but our drawing does have just that combination of a classicstic structure in imitation of Poussin and a fresh representation of light and atmosphere - heralding Tiepolo - that both Muraro and Pignatti consider to be characteristic of Carpioni. [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 129]
