Lot Essay

The vertical composition of this painting is unusual among the artist's known, extant works. It was likely conceived as one of a pair, the other of which has yet to be identified, as indicated by the existence of a pair of larger scale canvases of almost identical format in a private collection (see M. Vinci Corsini, Francesco Foschi, Milan, 2002, p. 189, nos. 129 and 130, illustrated).
