This work can be compared to the drawing presented at the sale of the Prince de Ligne's collection in Vienna in 1798. It is catalogued as follows in Adam Bartsch, "Catalogue des dessins du prince Charles de Ligne": "Saint Pierre et Saint Jérôme à genoux devant la Sainte Vierge assise sous un dais, sur une espèce d'autel et l'Enfant Jésus sur ses genoux.
This drawing, very finished, is with a bistre washed feather.
The correction, the expression of the figures and the finish of the work make it one of the capital pieces.
It was paid 102 livres de France. E.H. in-folio."
