介绍（中）	1637年6月，当时著名的意大利巴洛克画家Pietro da Cortona抵达佛罗伦萨，立即开始了托斯卡纳大公Ferdinando II（1610-1670）和他的妻子Vittoria della Rovere（1622-1694）委托在皮蒂宫为Camera della Stufa创作的壁画周期。主题是"世界的四个时代"，正如经典文学来源奥维德的《变形记》开头所述。这幅画与博物馆收藏的另一张纸（发票：1972.118.250）一起，是一幅为"黄金时代"中坐在左边的年轻人绘制的书房。在这幅壁画中，一位年轻女子为坐着的年轻人戴上了胜利的桂冠，这是对维多利亚这个名字的暗示，而满载着橡树树枝的普蒂前进时没有打扰到一头温顺的狮子，这是指这对年轻夫妇象征的美第奇-德拉-罗夫雷的婚姻。比较这两幅画，这里年轻人右臂的位置更接近壁画中采用的解决方案，但在这两幅图的研究中，他的左臂（这里只是轻轻地表示）被抬起，而在壁画中，它横跨在他的胸部。对同一座雕像的进一步研究在罗马进行（Istituto Centrale per la Grafica，Corsini Collection库存124324）。
介绍（英）	In June 1637, Pietro da Cortona, the leading Italian Baroque painter of his time, arrived in Florence and immediately began a fresco cycle commissioned by the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Ferdinando II (1610-1670) and his wife Vittoria della Rovere (1622-1694), for the Camera della Stufa in the Pitti Palace. The subject was the "Four Ages of the World" as recounted at the beginning of Ovid's Metamorphoses, a classical literary source. Together with another sheet in the Museum's collection (inv. 1972.118.250), this drawing is a study for a youth seated at the left in the "Age of Gold". In this fresco a young woman crowns the seated youth with a laurel of victory, an allusion to the name Vittoria, while putti, laden with branches of oak (rovere), advance without disturbing a docile lion, these are references to the Medici - Della Rovere marriage symbolized by the youthful couple. Comparing the two drawings, here the position of the youth's right arm is closer in to the solution adopted in the fresco, but in both figure studies his left arm (here only lightly indicated) is raised, while in the fresco it rests across his chest. A further study for the same seated figure is in Rome (Istituto Centrale per la Grafica, Corsini Collection inv. 124324).
