The Virgin and Child Enthroned with Saints

A photograph of a painting catalogued by Ruland (1876) as being then in the collection of the Hon. Rev. Richard Boyle, Marston. The painting is a slightly varied copy of the central panel of the ‘Colonna Altarpiece’, painted by Raphael (c.1504-05) for the Nunnery of Sant’Antonio da Padua, Perugia and now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (inv. no.1630ab). See RCIN 850667 for a photograph of the Metropolitan painting.
