Lemoine, Nicolas Régnier: Peintre, collectionneur et marchand d'art, Paris, 2007, p. 264, no. 71 In her catalogue entry for the work, Lemoine suggests that the present painting was executed during Régnier's Venetian period, the artist having moved to the Republic in 1626. She suggests that there may be studio participation, particularly in the right-hand section of the composition. Régnier has used the figure of Guido Reni's Saint John the Baptist in the Wilderness for the Church of the Eremitani, Padua, as his inspiration for Apollo in the present painting. This figure of the Paduan Saint John served as a model on numerous occasions for Régnier.
