990095.jpg c.1600-50
-
A study of the head of a bald bearded man, looking over his shoulder to the left.
The attribution is apparently based on the identification of the drawing with an entry in Inventory A, p. 146, No. 2 'a Head by Sisto Badalocchi, in black chalk'; this might refer equally or better to another drawing of a male head, RCIN 990105.Provenance
Probably purchased by Richard Dalton on behalf of George III c.1760; first recorded in a Royal Collection inventory of c.1800-1820
