The Nationalmuseum in Stockholm owns three drawings on poplar wood by Salvator Rosa, which are of exceptional value since works of art of this kind are rare in Rosa’s oeuvre and unique in their genre. One represents The Abandoned Oedipus, another a Rocky Landscape with a Tree and Two Figures, and a third a Philosopher in a Wood. The Philosopher in a Wood is unpublished and was only recently rediscovered among the works in the Museum’s collection store
