Object information

Signature/inscription Information about the signature, dating, inscription or any other mark on the front or back of the art work

According to Gerson genuine but redrawn (Bredius/Gerson 1969, no. 592A).

Current attribution: Rembrandt
: follower of Rembrandt
: or studio of Rembrandt
The material history of the painting makes any judgement difficult, but according to the members of the Rembrandt Research Project the quality of the execution seems to be too poor for an attribution to Rembrandt himself (Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings 1982-2015, vol. 5 (2010), no. V26). The State Hermitage Museum considers the present painting as an autograph Rembrandt (The State Hermitage Museum Collection Online; accessed March 2017).
