Note du spécialiste

Between 1654 and 1658, and to a lesser extent in later years, Molyn made duplicates of many of his drawings (H.-U. Beck, 'Pieter Molyn and his Duplicate Drawings', Master Drawings, 1997, XXXV, no. 4, p. 341). These versions, often only differing in small details from the prototypes, were probably intended to satisfy demand of collectors for certain images. Another version of this drawing is now at the Albertina, Vienna (inv. 8692; see H.-U. Beck, Pieter Molyn 1595-1661. Katalog der Handzeichnungen, Doornspijk, 1998, no. 407, ill.).
