專家說明
A characteristic work of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, this study belongs to the head studies and other drawings gathered in albums of which the provenance goes back to the artist’s son Domenico, and some of which were dismembered after their sale at auction in 1885. Many of these head studies – although not the present example – relate to Domenico’s etchings first published in 1774 under the title Raccolta di teste. For similar drawings with the same early provenance, see J. Byam Shaw and G. Knox, The Robert Lehman Collection, VI, Italian Eighteenth-Century Drawings, New York and Princeton, 1987, no. 78-80, ill.; and B. Aikema, Tiepolo in Holland.
