Note du spécialiste

We are grateful to Susan Anderson and Berhard Schnackenburg for confirming the attribution to Dusart on the basis of a digital photograph. Both suggest that the drawing might have been reworked by Dusart after or on an original sketch initially laid out by Adriaen van Ostade. The drawing in light brown ink is perhaps the work of Dusart.
