History

The date of this picture is uncertain. Crowe and Cavalcaselle put it down to the year 1547 (about); Gronau thinks it was painted somewhat earlier, about 1543. It belonged to the Mantuan pictures bought in 1628 by Charles I. It entered the collections Iabach and Louis XIV. In the eighteenth century it was in the sacristy of the Chapel at Versailles. A replica, which, from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century was preserved in the Ducal Palace, Venice, belongs now to the Earl of Yarborough.[1]
