Description: Cleric. Laid down. Numbered at lowr right in pen and brown ink: 1457. (Sparre).

This and the two following numbers [857 and 858] seem to be preparatory studies for the oil painting in Museo Correale at Sorrento representing the pious works of the Society of Jesus dated by F. Bologna c. 1620 or slightly later. Costumes, vestments and poses are all fairly similar.

The present figure seems to be the model for the Jesuit in the centre foreground.  [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 856]
