We are grateful to Paul Joannides for having confirmed the attribution to Timoteo Viti after examining the work. He noticed that our drawing shows the influence of Raphael and that it was probably executed in 1511-12 when the artist was working with the Master and had become familiar with his studies of female nudes. Our study was certainly designed to take place in a narrative scene.
