Vanitas with Sleeping Child is copy after Luigi Miradori

Bukowski's, from Sweden, sells on 14 September 2015 an "Old Master, Germany, 17th century" Vanitas with a sleeping child, estimated at 1,900 Euro.

No idea if this version is German or not, but it is a copy of a work by Luigi Miradori (also known as Il Genovesino), an Italian painter of the first half of the 17th century. An original version was offered at Christie's in 2006 with an estimate of £25,000 to £30,000, but failed to sell.

Another version, where the vanitas symbols were removed to make it more appealing(?), was for sale at Drouot.

A rather dark copy, attributed to the Italian School, 17th century, failed to sell at Cambi Aste with an estimate of 2,000 to 3,000 Euro.

The one for sale is more elaborate than the original versions I have seen on the net, but painted with considerably less brilliance. It is also more drawn, more line-based than colour-based. Still, it is a well-done, interesting work and should fetch 2,000 to 3,000 Euro. UPDATE: sold for 1,713 Euro, slightly below my estimate.
