Note du spécialiste

This picture relates to a work in the Museo Provincial, Zaragoza, which Spinosa (op. cit.) considers problematic due to the poor condition, while not excluding the possibility of it being an autograph work by Ribera, dated to circa 1630-32.
We are grateful to Professor Nicola Spinosa for his assistance with the cataloguing of this lot.
