The composition is that of a van Bloemen painting in the collection of the Earl of Leicester at Holkham Hall, datable before 1715 (repr. in A. Busiri Vici, Jan Frans van Bloemen Orizzonte [Rome, 1974], no. 272). An Zwollo (letter to the author, 13 July 1984) feels it is done after the painting, rather than preliminary to it.
