Two other versions of this composition are known. Both are on canvas; one is in the Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford, Connecticut, and the other is in the collection of Pierre Rosenberg, Paris.
Cunningham and Borea, loc. cit., accept the Hartford canvas as Domenichino's, confusing it with the present version on copper. Spear, loc. cit., rejects all three, but refers to the above picture as 'the strongest of the three, reflective of Domenichino's style of ca. 1605'
