The Los Angeles-The Hague catalogue from 20006 presents copious evidence and argument that this version is the prime one, and that the Hague version is a somewhat later copy. They date this one from ca. 1617 but the Hague version ca. 1621-22. They therefore argue that it is the present version that is depicted in Brueghel and Rubens's Sense of Taste (Madrid) which is dated 1618.
