The subject suggests it may originally have been commissioned for one of the courtrooms in the Doge's Palace in Venice by Andrea Loredan, where it was recorded as being seen, although unfinished, in 1648.
When the poet Byron encouraged William Bankes to buy it from the Marescalchi collection in Bologna in 1820 it was attributed to the artist Giorgione, a Venetian contemporary of Sebastiano del Piombo.
