We are grateful to Klaus Ertz for confirming the attribution of the present painting to Simon de Vos. A written certificate (October 2020) is available.

Ertz writes: ‘Simon de Vos was an eclectic relying on multiple inspirations. For his religious and history subjects, his primary sources were Peter Paul Rubens, Anthony van Dyck, Jan Liss, and, above all, Frans Francken the Younger, whose manner he elaborated on and which he invigorated by adding more dynamism. Some of his pictures betray the influence of Theodor van Tulden’. Ertz dates the present painting to the 1640s.
