RAPHAEL - Raffaello Santi or Sanzio (After)
1483 - 1520
The Holy Family with Saint Anne and the little Saint John.
Oil on canvas (Folding; lifts on the lower left; some restorations)
H. 115 - L. 91 cm
An early remake of The Virgin with the Palm Tree, engraved by Marcantonio Raimondi, after a missing composition by Raphael, or his disciple Gian Francesco Penni (1488 - 1528) (Cf. Catalogue of the exhibition Raphael. Les dernières années. p .191 & 192 - Musée du Louvre 2012 - 2013). The painter here has added the figure of Joseph leaning on a low wall, instead of the palm tree, and the large green drapery with golden threads on which the figures stand out.
