The refined taste, the refined poses, the definition of the anatomies, the vibrant light, allow us to identify for this painting the hand of a Mannerist painter active during the sixteenth century. In particular, the composition and stylistic research make it possible to attribute the panel to Girolamo Siciolante known as da Sermoneta (1521 - 1575). His first training took place under the guide of Leonardo Grazia known as da Pistoia (1502 - 1548). Later he settled in Rome where he was able to see the painting of Raphael and Michelangelo from life and where he was first a pupil and then collaborator of Perin del Vaga (1501 - 1547)
