Description
English: The object in the foreground on which the protagonist's hand rests, mistaken for a stone, had led to the recognition of the man as the biblical hero Samson, forced to turn a millstone after his capture. The reflectographic investigations and the last restoration, however, allow us to see this object as an upside-down string musical instrument and to identify the painting with the "Three great singing heads" listed as being by Giorgione in Gabriele Vendramin's inventory.
Français : L'objet au premier plan sur lequel repose la main du protagoniste, confondu avec une pierre, avait conduit à reconnaître l'homme comme le héros biblique Samson, contraint de tourner une meule après sa capture. Les investigations réflectographiques et la dernière restauration permettent cependant de voir cet objet comme un instrument de musique à cordes renversé et d'identifier le tableau avec les "Trois grandes têtes chantantes" repertoriées comme étant de Giorgione dans l'inventaire de Gabriele Vendramin.
Italiano: L'oggetto in primo piano su cui poggia la mano del protagonista, scambiato per un sasso, aveva portato al riconoscimento dell'uomo come l'eroe biblico Sansone, costretto a girare una macina dopo la sua cattura. Le indagini riflettografiche e l'ultimo restauro permettono però di vedere questo oggetto come uno strumento musicale a corde capovolto e di identificare il dipinto con le "Tre grandi teste cantanti" elencate come del Giorgione nell'inventario di Gabriele Vendramin.
