Note du spécialiste

Like Salvator Rosa's, Spadaro's abbreviated pen style is much indebted to the example of Ribera. The attribution of this drawing to Micco Spadaro, first made by the owner, was confirmed by Viviana Farina, who connected it to a study for a dancing figure with a laurel crown in the Louvre, possibly for the same mythological composition (inv. 16249; W. Vitzthum and C. Monbeig Goguel, Le Dessin à Naples du XVIe siècle au XVIIIe siècle, Paris, 1967, no. 49, ill.).
