專家說明

Traditionallly attributed to Angelica Kauffman, whose group portrait of King Ferdinand and his family it is after, the present drawing is in fact by Bartolozzi, and is probably the drawing used by Mariano Bovi for his stipple engraving of the painting. Details such as the lack of sashes on the King and his son identify it as relating to the final version of the painting in the Museo di Capodimonte, Naples, rather than the modello in the Lichtenstein collection.

We are grateful to Dr. Bettina Baumgärtel for her help with the present catalogue entry.
