A photograph of a drawing now in the Kupferstichkabinett, Berlin. The drawing is probably copied from the figure of the Virgin in the so-called ‘Holy Family of Francis I’, a painting attributed to Raphael and his workshop (1518) now in the Musée du Louvre, Paris (inv. no.604). A photograph of the ‘Holy Family of Francis I’ can be found in the Raphael Collection (RCIN 851028).
