Beautiful drawing. I only have 2 comments...
1. The figure doing the kissing only has 4 fingers on her left hand. Maybe the pinkie finger is tucked underneath, who knows.
2. It generally appears to be a representation of Diana and Endymion, but it doesn't particularly look like the one at the Palazzo Farnese (see below). This may sound cryptic, but I think artcollector1 knows what I mean.

Sure, to me it's not a study for the farnese gallery...
After looking to some of carracci drawing, it doesnt even look like his ''touch ''. Thats why I was asking here...
I have no clue, and I think that there could be numerous possible author from that time/period/style
