Two Cows (recto and verso)
View through Harvard Museums
Department of Drawings
Possibly Queen Christina of Sweden. Prince Livio Odescalchi Rome (?-1713) by descent; to Odescalchi Family (1713-1957) sold; [through Sotheby’s Rome November 20 1957 lot 67]; [to H. M. Calmann New York (1957-1960) sold]; to Marian Harris Phinney Cambridge MA (1960-1962) bequeathed; to Fogg Art Museum 1962.
Notes:
The drawing was preserved in what Marcel Roethlisberger has called “The Animal Album” until the album was dismantled in 1957 after it was purchased at Sotheby’s by H. M. Calmann. Hence the listed provenance refers to the entire album until 1957 after which the drawing was sold separately.
