Today an older painting by a Danish artist, that is very similar to yesterday’s. 
It’s not sure Carcano ever saw this painting but both men were of the same age and it is know that Philipsen visited Italy.
 
Theodor Philipsen
(1840 - 1920)
 
Theodor Esbern Philipsen was a Danish painter of Jewish ancestry; known for landscapes and animal portraits. He also did small figures in wax and clay.
