Death of the Miser

Size: 256 x 149 mm
Location: Musée du Louvre, Paris

Although originally thought to have been a preparatory drawing for the painting "Death and the Usurer (Death of the Miser)", it is now believed that the drawing was executed by an unknown follower of Bosch. Examination of the underdrawing of the painting "Death and the Usurer" reveals that Bosch shortened Death's arrow in the final version. The length of the arrow in the drawing is equal to the length of the arrow in the painting, rather than in the underdrawing. The unknown artist of the drawing also embellished details including an orthodox cross below the barrel vault. The assertion that the drawing is of Bosch's hand is used by Lynda Harris to support her theory that Bosch was a practitioner of the Cathar religion. The "Death and the Usurer" drawing is paired with a similar "Ship of Fools Drawing" which has also been erroneously attributed to Bosch.
