The composition relates closely to Ricci's altarpiece of circa 1705 at Saluzzo for which there is a modello (with the same arched top format) in the Royal Collection at Hampton Court.
Another version of the present picture, formerly in the Caspari collection, Munich, is rejected as a copy by Daniels, loc. cit., making it tempting to cite the present work as the model for the engraving by Pietro Monaco, which records an identical composition, of rectangular format, successively in the collections of Antonio Maria Zanetti, Gaspare Diziani and Consul Smith.
