Jacob's dream. 18th c Drawing, brush and grey wash, heightened with white 28,5 x 27,7 cm, laid paper with watermark (fleur-de-lis de Strasbourg), unsigned (tear of ca. 1,5 cm at the right edge, oxidated pigments on angels' arms and wings, minor creases, upper half doubled on verso). Under passe-partout. Scene from Genesis (28: 10-22), where Jacob falls asleep on a stone and dreams of a stairway to heaven. Probably vaguely based on the composition of Raphael on this theme.
