The present painting is one of nine versions of this composition produced in the workshop of Domenico Fetti, following his celebrated prototype (Dresden, Gemäldegalerie). The original by Fetti, horizontal in format, formed part of a series of thirteen Parables commissioned for the Grotto of Isabella d'Este in the Ducal Palace, Mantua. The workshop versions, all vertical in format, follow most closely the fine example at Barber Institute of Fine Arts, Birmingham.
