The French School drawing was aquired as a work by Rubens and was later attributed to Watteau by J. Mathey. It is after Michelangelo's fresco in the Sistine Chapel, Rome. Rubens did a drawing of this same subject in red chalk now in the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool of which the present sheet and another in the Národní Galerie in Prague are copies (Logan and Plomp, p. 308). There is also a lithograph of the composition by J.C. Lödel.
