Description: No watermark. Inscribed at upper left in black chalk: "S. Pranda" and at upper right in pen and brown ink: L 12/16.

Provenance: Unknown.
The old attribution to Sante Peranda cannot be defended. Instead, Ivanoff tentatively suggests Pietro Damini. Tietze listed five sheets that could be ascribed with varying probability to Damini, who studied with G.B. Novelli of Castelfranco, a pupil of Palma. Alessandro Bettagno added two more sheets with a provenance from the same early Venetian collection.

In this rather varied series a central part is played by the Louvre´s Scene from the legend of a saint, which Tietze also connects stylistically with a painting, "Miracle of St. Dominic", in the church of that saint in Chioggia, done by Damini 1617-19. 

It is chiefly with this sheet that our drawing displays stylistic links, which form the basis for our attribution. [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 131]
