The attribution of the original painting was disputed at the time Marées saw it in the Palazzo Pitti. He admired its contemplative nocturnal atmosphere and its small-scale figures, but Schack was less enthusiastic: ‘Under very bright light it produces a great effect, but darkening over time has rendered it so black that on dull days very little of it can be seen.’
