介绍（中）	这幅黑色粉笔小而充满活力的构图素描描绘了苏珊娜虚构的旧约故事，右边是性感的裸体，两位好色的长老在洗澡时感到惊讶，他们的人物被简要地指出。艺术家首先快速而轻盈地勾勒出整体构图，然后大胆地重新设计男性人物的轮廓，用更大的手压强调色调。这幅构图草图代表了皮托尼典型的洛可可式感性，似乎是为完成的绘画或版画而设计的，似乎与威尼斯公民博物馆（第 4338 节）和威尼斯奇尼基金会（第 30.252 期）的素描密切相关。皮托尼的《苏珊娜和长老》的几幅作品现存，尽管没有一幅代表完成的纪念性画作。反面包含一些偶然的黑色和红色粉笔涂鸦（顶部的图案似乎代表建筑形式），这些似乎不是艺术家的作品。黑色粉笔"79"的反面注释出自18世纪的手手，而石墨的反面注释"14[？]。39.8/1" 是现代手工。（卡门·班巴赫，2005）
介绍（英）	This small, energetic composition sketch in black chalk portrays the apocryphal Old Testament story of Susannah, here seen in voluptuous nudity on the right, being surprised at her bath by the two lecherous elders, whose figures are summarily indicated. The artist first rapidly and lightly sketched the overall composition, and then boldly reworked the outlines of the male figures with much greater pressure of the hand for tonal emphasis. Representing Pittoni's typical Rococo sensibility, the composition sketch appears to have been intended for a finished painting or print, and seems to be closely related to that of a sketch in the Museo Civico Correr, Venice (inv. 4338) and in the Fondazione Cini, Venice (inv. 30.252.) Several compositions of Susannah and the Elders by Pittoni are extant, although none representing a finished monumental painting has been identified. The verso contains some incidental scribbles in black and red chalks (a motif toward the top appears to represent architectural forms), which do not appear to be by the artist. The verso annotation in black chalk "79" is by an 18th century hand, while the verso annotation in graphite "14[?].39.8/1" is by a modern hand. (Carmen C. Bambach, 2005)
