The label of the Friedenstein Castle collection identifies the painting as a work of Leonardo and calls it "Die Bambini Christus und Johannes". Cf. Rathgeber, Georg, Beschreibung des Herzoglichen Museums zu Gotha. Gotha 1835, page 56: There, the painting is listed as a work by an unknown master with the title "Christus und Johannes in kindlicher Umarmung". According to Rathgeber, there were apparently two paintings of this subject in the collection.
Provenienz: Foundation of the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha family, ducal art ownership, Callenberg Castle.
