Scholars have been unable to divine the subject of this drawing, or whether it was part of an independent work or a design for a panel or wall painting (Müller, 214–16). It seems to have been cut from the same sheet as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Fragment_of_a_Scene_with_Classical_Figures,_by_Hans_Holbein_the_Younger.jpg" class="extiw" title="w:File:Fragment of a Scene with Classical Figures, by Hans Holbein the Younger.jpg">a scene with classical figures</a>, in which it may have been a background.
