About the painting
Two studies of men, at left a young man in profile wearing a blue cloak and black hat and at right a bewigged man wearing a pale blue long coat and vest with a white cravat, black stockings and a fur muff, carrying a black tricorn hat in his right hand. This work is part of an album of fifty-three sketches by Carlevarijs which includes figures he appears to have painted in the open air in preparation for insertion into formal compositions. The figure at the right reappears for example in The Molo and the Riva degli Schiavoni, Looking East and in The Piazetta, towards the punta della Dogana both now in private collections.
