專家說明

Rosenberg and Prat date the drawing to circa 1709-10 and suggest that a counterproof might have been taken from it. The figure is similar to one in a painting by Watteau, La polonaise, apparently lost but known through an engraving from the Recueil Jullienne. Four other drawings depicting women in 'polonais' costumes, all dating circa 1709-10, are known (Rosenberg and Prat, op. cit., nos. 27, 28, 44 and 76).
