This sheet can be related to a drawing by Giordano of the Assumption of the Virgin, showing the apostles in similar poses, in the collection of the Duke of Devonshire, Chatsworth (Jaffé, op. cit., no. 404, ill.). Two altarpieces showing the Assumption of the Virgin by Giordano are known: one, from 1667, is in Santa Maria della Salute, Venice, and shows the Apostle lower left in the same pose, the other a fresco in the El Escorial.
