Note du spécialiste

Close, although in reverse, to one of the pilgrims in Viani's painting of The Supper at Emmaus in a Bolognese private collection (A. Cera ed., 'Domenico Maria Viani', in La pittura emiliana del '600, Milan, 1982, no. 3 ill.). For another drawing by Viani in black chalk and also in reverse to the painting it prepares, see R. Roli, in Disegni emiliani del sei-settecento. Quadri da stanza e da altare, Bologna, 1991, no. 64.I, p. 235, ill.
