Provenance: probably sale at Galerie Charpentier, Paris, 22 June 1938 (the dimensions are the same as those of our painting, 33.5 x 26.5 cm).
The current exhibition, Greuze: l'enfance en lumière , features two preparatory studies for this composition and an engraving of the same subject, La Proposition malhonnête (p. 307, cat. 7). There is also a sketch of the same iconographic motif, painted in Marseille, with the left part removed.
