Catalogue Note
Notre tableau est une étude pour une oeuvre de Peeter Symons conservée au musée du Prado (Museo del Prado, catalogo de pinturas, Escuela flamenca siglo XVII, p.388, rep.n°1971).
Peeters Simons est un peintre flamand de l'entourage de Rubens. Le musée du Prado conserve aussi un tableau de même sujet, Cephale et Procris, par Rubens qui a probablement inspiré Symons pour notre tableau (voir opus cité infra, p.305, n°2459).
