Santi Corsi
Madonna del Granduca, after Raphael

circa 1880

About the Item

"Madonna del Granduca", after Raphael Oil on Canvas: 34 x 22.5 in. Frame: 45 x 33 ½ in. Inscribed verso. Pitti Palace red wax seal verso*. Fine Gilt Carved Wood Frame. The Madonna del Granduca is a Madonna painting by the Italian renaissance artist Raphael (Raffaello Santi, 1483-1520), a principal work at the Pitti Palace in Florence, which houses the Palatine Gallery. Our Madonna was painted by the highly talented Florentine artist, Santi Corsi, whose workshop was only a 15-minute walk away from the Pitti Palace. He specialized in painting the rooms of the Palatine Gallery, documenting the masterpieces displayed and collected over the centuries by the Medici and Habsburg-Lorraine families. Santi Corsi had obtained permission to reproduce the paintings exhibited, and carry the wax seal of the Pitti on the reverse of many of his works. His painting of the public opening of the collection was bequeathed by the last heiress of the Medici family to the city of Florence at the beginning of the 19th century. Corsi’s interior painting ‘La Sala Di Apollo’ (Hall of Apollo) in Palazzo Pitti, shows Raphael’s Madonna de Granduca. Gallery notes: The red wax seal of the Pitti Palace strongly suggests Santi Corsi painted our Madonna at the Palatine gallery directly from Raphael’s, which allowed the artist to faithfully reproduce the work with such high quality. Presented in a Fine Gilt Carved Wood Frame. *Relined onto a new transparent support canvas with the wax seal re-sited on stretcher verso.

    A masterful example of Italian Mannerist painting, this exceptional panel was composed by the renowned Florentine painter Domenico Puligo.
