      AFTER A WORK COPYING RAPHAEL (URBINO 1483-ROME 1520)

      St Margaret

      c.1853-76

      Albumen print | 20.5 x 10.9 cm (sheet of paper) | RCIN 851502

      A photograph of a drawing now in the Gabinetto Disegni e Stampe degli Uffizi, Florence (inv. no.1337F). The drawing is thought to be a copy after a lost study by Raphael for the 'Saint Margaret', a painting currently in the Musée du Louvre, Paris (inv. no.607), the execution of which is generally ascribed to Giulio Romano after designs by Raphael (c.1518). A very similar drawing - attributed to Alessandro Alberti and also considered as a copy after Raphael's lost original - is in the Galleria Nazionale delle Stampe, Rome (inv. no.FN 2942). A photograph of the painting in the Louvre at RCIN 851497.
