Specialist note

Several variants of this composition are recorded, the prime version probably being that in the Cassa di Risparmio di Firenze (see F. Baldassare, Giovanni Domenico Ferretti, Milan, 1992, pp. 240-241, Dip. Com. 19, illustrated p. 245). Another version is listed in the Mark Fehrs Haukohl and Family collection, on loan to the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, Sarasota, Florida.
