Solomon Receiving the Queen of Sheba

First half of the XVII century. Wash, Pencil, Pencil ground, Grey-brown ink on yellow paper.
Not on display

Inscribed on the old mount, lower center, in brown ink: zucheri. In spite of the old attribution, the composition and figure types are entirely characteristic of Baglione. However, the poor handling indicates that this is a copy.
