Description: Laid down. 
Provenance: M.G. Anckarsvärd ; A Michelson ; K. Michelson ; Acquired by the museum in 1896

Regarded traditionally as a Discovery of Moses, this sheet was re-interpreted as an Education of Achilles by Bettagno in the 1959 catalogue. 

In Anckarsvärds´s collection the sheet was listed under Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo, with which Sirén agreed. The drawing attracted the attention of Bettagno in connection with the Pellegrini exhibition in 1959 and he suggested the present attribution. Pignatti is more in favour of Diziani, though he considers the possibility that the drawing is a copy after Pellegrini. 

It seems inadvisable to take a definite stand as convincing parallels are to be found among sheets that have been attributed with good reason to both Pellegrini and Diziani. The latter was clearly very dependent at times on the former´s manner of drawing but much research is needed- perhaps chiefly on the volume of drawing but much more research is needed- perhaps chiefly on the volume of drawings ascribed to Diziani that is known as the Molin Bequest in Museo Correr, Venice- before a clear distinction can be made between these two artist´s oeuvres.
