A photograph of a drawing formerly in the Wicar Museum, Lille and now in the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Lille (inv. no.Pl. 441). The drawing - the attribution of which is still disputed - is related to the central group of the 'Coronation of the Virgin', the main panel of the so-called 'Oddi Altarpiece' (or 'Pala Oddi') executed by Raphael in c.1502-03 and now in the Pinacoteca Vaticana, Vatican City (inv. no.334). Photographs of the 'Coronation of the Virgin' can be found at RCINs 851349, 851350, 851351.
