-
A drawing of the head of a child, and below it, the head of a woman with long hair; both are tilted downwards and turned three-quarters to the right. The sheet is laid down, but an inscription on the back can be partially deciphered, including a date which appears to read 1618, though the last figure is doubtful.
Provenance
Probably acquired by George III in 1762 as part of the collection of Cardinal Alessandro Albani
