Description: Laid down. Inscribed on the old mount in pen and brown ink: "Pietro Veccia."

Provenance: J.T. Sergel (Lugt 2339b).

The drawn oeuvre of Pietro Vecchia is still a matter for speculation, based on some sheets with old inscriptions. The Uffizi has the largest group and there Muraro ha distinguished a number of drawings where the artist has reacted agains the academism which dominated in Padua and turned to a direkt study of nature. 

These nudes, although in black and white chalk, reveal the same perception of figures as our sheet. Muraro dates them to the middle of the century.  [Bjurström, It. Drawings, cat. no. 138]
