AFTER A WORK COPYING PIETRO PERUGINO (CITTÀ DELLA PIEVE C. 1450-FONTIGNANO 1523)

The Archangel Michael [detail from 'The Archangel Michael']

after 1853

Salted paper print, retouched with gouache | 15.6 x 15.4 cm (sheet of paper) | RCIN 851528

A photograph of a painting listed by Ruland (1876) as being then in the Darmstadt Gallery. Not listed in Ruland's Raphael Collection catalogue (1876).

The painting seems to reproduce a detail from a painting by Perugino (c.1499-1500) now in the National Gallery, London (inv. no.NG 288). A photograph of the original painting by Perugino can be found at RCIN 851523.c. Another photograph of the picture formerly in the Darmstadt Gallery at RCIN 851527.
