The text is as follows:
ROME: early 18th century
1217
Studies of drapery, three hands and a head
Inscribed illegibly in black chalk with a note by the artist
Black chalk heightened with white on faded blue paper
12 ¼ x 10 (311 x 254) D.780-1887
PROVENANCE Bought 1887
The former attribution to Romanelli is not convincing. The artist should rather be look for in the direction of Sebastiano Conca. |
