Previously this drawing was accepted as an original early work by Jan Brueghel, but Schapelhouman's 1987 catalogue argued against this. He suggested that this was a follower imitating Jan, or else a copy after a lost early drawing. The date of ca. 1600 was suggested by Winner, who accepted it as an original.
