After a work by the school of Raphael (Urbino 1483-Rome 1520)
The Holy Family with the Infant Baptist and an Angel c.1850
Lithograph | RCIN 850664
A lithographic facsimile of a pen and ink drawing now in the Kupferstichkabinett, Berlin (inv. no.KdZ 2358). Lettered with the title, location of the drawing and production details.
As lettered on the print, the drawing was then thought to be by Raphael and was part of the collection of the late Don José de Madrazo, Madrid.
The drawing shows parallels with Raphael’s Terranuova Madonna (c.1504-05; Gemäldegalerie, Berlin, inv. no.247A), and the composition corresponds largely to an arch topped drawing by Raphael now in the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Lille (inv. no.431; see RCIN 850665 for a photograph of the drawing). See RCIN 850660 for a photograph of the Berlin painting.
