專家說明

Kern has taken this composition from a detail in a painting by Giovanni Battista Pittoni and others showing The allegorical tomb of the archbishop Tillotson, which exists in a number of versions and in a print after one of these paintings (F. Zava Boccazzi, Pittoni, Venice, 1979, nos. 83, 92, I.19, ill). Kern's early work especially displays a strong dependence on Pittoni, of whose work he made numerous copies. Kern's drawings and paintings are often so close to those by his master that they have been wrongly attributed to him.
