This drawing was traced by Cézanne from an engraving by Paquet. Paquet had based his engraving on a drawing by Bourdon reproducing Caravaggio's Deposizione (1602-1604), in the Pinacoteca Vaticana.

There is a watercolour of the same subject (RWC 492) executed circa 1900. 'As Neumeyer stated: "Nobody but Cézanne amongst his contemporaries would have shown an interest in this Baroque master"... "When", as Roberto Longhi observed, "Cézanne makes a copy for his own edification, he illuminates, after three hundred years, with incredible intelligence the quintessential, abstract, metaphysical appearance of the Caravaggesque model"' (quoted by J. Rewald, op. cit).
