Further details

ATTRIBUTED TO E. QUELLINUS II, HYLAS CARRIED OFF BY THE NYMPHS, AFTER G. ROMANO, BLACK CHALK, PEN AND BROWN INK, BROWN WASH, HEIGHTENED WITH WHITE AND YELLOW, ON LIGHT BROWN PAPER

The drawing after Giulio Romano has been published four times and in three different ways. Carlos van Hasselt (1972) thought that Rubens was retouching a copy after Giulio Romano, while Michael Jaffé (1977) attributed it entirely to Rubens; James Byam Shaw (1992) followed Jaffé, while Jeremy Wood considered it to be a copy in the hand of Erasmus Quellinus. Quellinus left a small number of drawings after the Italian masters. A similar example of a Procession of Bacchus (probably after Pirro Ligorio) sold at Christie's in London on 2 July 1991, lot 201, supports Jeremy Wood's opinion and confirms this attribution to Quellinus.
