Description |
English: Its received and hitherto repeated attribution has been to 'N. Cochin' after Sustermans. Why is unclear, since it is inscribed on the back of the original canvas with a different albeit only semi-legible name: 'Sustermans of Galileo /Copied by N. Ceco [mi (?)] / 1879'. Whatever the reason, this has led to previous confusion that it was either by or after one of the French 17th-century Cochin brothers (Nicolas or Noel). It is a good copy of the Sustermans original and now (2011) beyond reasonable doubt that it is by Niccolo Cecconi (1835-1902) a Florentine painter of historical and genre pictures, and portraits, who also worked as a copyist and pastel artist.
