Note du spécialiste

Another drawing by Boscoli, showing Judith before Holofernes, which is similar in size and execution and also inscribed as a lunette, is in the Albertina, Vienna (Inv. 674; V. Birke and J. Kertész, Die Italienischen Zeichnungen der Albertina, Vienna, Cologne and Weimar, I, 1992, p. 362).
