Few works of this subject matter are known by d'Elia but the present paintings can be compared to those offered at Dorotheum Vienna, 6 October 2009, lot 87. The artist studied under Francesco Solimena although the influence of Filippo Falciatore (1718-1768) is clearly discernible in these two works.
