Footnotes
Provenance
Private Collection, France
The present work is derived from Joos van Cleve's original, which has a gold background, now in a private collection, Europe. It was clearly a popular composition as attested to by the numerous versions produced by the artist's workshop. Almost all of these copies were the same size as the original which suggests that they were used for private devotion (see: J.O. Hand, Joos van Cleve The Complete Paintings, New Haven and London, 2004, pp. 115-116, cat. no. 6).
