The present painting repeats the composition by Rubens in the Prado, Madrid and the related oil sketch in the Dulwich Picture Gallery, London. It is among the finest of the recorded copies of the composition and was described by Ludwig Burchard (in a letter from 1960) as 'painted in Rubens's studio with competence and brilliance. The fruit, the parrots and the monkey seem to be by the hand of Frans Snyders.' Other copies include works in the Nasjonalgalleriet, Oslo and Sanssouci, Potsdam.
