Alessandro TURCHI (Vérone 1578-Rome 1649) et atelier Lot and his daughters (Genesis 19.32 - 36). Oil on canvas. 109,5 x 148 cm. Framing; small gaps at lower left; some restorations. Two other similar compositions, of smaller dimensions, are currently known: the first one formerly in the Leger Galleries of London (Canvas; 96,5 x 129,6 cm) the second one in Venice in the collections of Ettore Viancini, then Egidio Martini (Canvas; 73,7 x 96,5 cm), our composition presenting some variations compared to the latter, notably in the yellow ochre tone of the drapery of Lot (Cf. Master Drawings. Erich Schleier. Drawings by Allesandro Turchi, Vol. 9, N.2, summer 1971, pp. 144 & 148, fig. 4 & notice).
