Online bibliography:
Wikipedia, Master of the Great Jars (reproduced in color).
On the Master of the Larges Jars, active in the circle of Adriaen Brouwer, to whom this painting was previously attributed, one can refer to the work of Gerard Knuttel, who tried to define the personality of the artist and to specify the plastic characters of his style (Cf. Adriaen Brouwer The Master and his Work; p. 29, 31, 176-178 - The Hague 1962).
