The attribution to Frontier is based on the typical treatment of an artist from the South of France, Frontier born in Paris, having then been in Lyon until his death. And also by comparison with the drawings of his very reduced corpus, including especially the drawings kept at the Dusseldorf Museum, published by Pierre Rosenberg in Master Drawings.
