Description: Passover. Laid down. Numbered at lower right in pen and brown ink: 103 (Sparre) and 82, struck out.

This drawing has been correctly attributed to Ligozzi by Julien Stock (mat note). The subject appears to be a celebration of Passover (Exodus 12:13). The Hebrews assemble to eat the sacrificial lamb, standing, with their shoes on, holding their staffs, as they eat in haste. The figures and faces of the men in this drawing compare closely to a drawing dated 1590-92 for a fresco of "Pope Boniface VIII receiving the Twelve Florentine Ambassadors" in the Salone dei Cinquecento, Palazzo Vecchio, at Florence (Uffizi 1370 S-826 E).  [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 1149]
