The traditional attribution to Parmigianino was at first affirmed by Mather; then it was changed by him to Andrea Schiavone on the basis of the drawing's resemblance to Schiavone's etching of this subject (Bartsch 2, repr. Richardson 1980, fig. 24). Francis Richardson instead argues that the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø±¬ÍøÕ¾ sheet is del Moro's preparatory drawing (and a copy of Schiavone's print) for his own etching of the subject (Bartsch I), which is in reverse to both this sheet and the Schiavone print. The unusual texture and flatness of the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø±¬ÍøÕ¾ drawing perhaps indicate that it is a counterproof (or itself was transferred).
