FLORENCE : ALINARI

The Trinity with saints

c.1853-76

Albumen print | 57.7 x 85.4 cm (sheet of paper) | RCIN 853791

Two photographs joined together of the upper half of the fresco The Trinity with Saints, painted by Raphael in the church of San Severo, Perugia, and dated to 1505 by a later inscription. Numbered on the photograph on the right-hand side: 10861; Alinari blind stamp in right-hand corner. Annotated on the verso.

The Trinity with Saints is Raphael's earliest known fresco, but was left unfinished at his death in 1520. The bottom half of the fresco was then completed by Perugino. See RCIN 853796 for a photograph of a preparatory drawing by Raphael, now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, for the fresco. The figure of God the Father at the very top of the fresco (not visible in this photograph) is almost entirely missing through damage.
