The present painting dates from c. 1720, Unterberger’s early period. It repeats a work by Luca Giordano now in the Accademia in Venice. Further copies of this composition are in the parish church of Roncone and in the museums of Bergamo and Vicenza. The estate inventory of Christoph Unterberger, the father of Michelangelo Unterberger, mentions a copy by the son after a painting by Luca Giordano, which is probably identical to the present composition.
