| Object history | Huber in his catalogue of the Winckler Collection, vol.II., p. 617, 2770, 2771, describes two prints from this composition, one of them probably being a proof of the other before the dedication, but with figures of the Virgin and St. John, not found in the above, which may be, however, the one he attributes to Cherubino Alberti, No. 2772. |
