Two other treatments of this theme by the artist are known. A larger unrelated version is in the Staatsgalerie, Stuttgart, which Mira Pajes Merriman dates to 1728-9 (Giuseppe Maria Crespi, Milan, 1980, p. 280, no. 160, fig. 160). A smaller horizontal version of the present picture, which was in the collection of Roderic Thesiger in London, is dated by Merriman to after 1730 (op. cit., no. 161, pl. 161). That picture corresponds closely with the present one although the grouping of the figures is significantly different and the kneeling woman and goat on the right is replaced by a single seated figure in the Thesiger picture. This group of the kneeling woman and goat with the standing woman is repeated in a Pastoral Scene with two Shepherdesses in the Roberto Longhi collection, Florence (ibid., no. 235, fig. 235) and as Merriman points out (ibid., p. 281, under no. 160), Crespi also drew several of the figures from the Stuttgart Jupiter which are to be found in one of the pendant pastoral scenes in the Roberto Longhi collection.
