About the Item

Madonna and Child Print after Raphael – La Vierge à la Chaise, 19th Century This exquisite 19th-century lithograph, titled La Vierge à la Chaise (The Virgin of the Chair), is a finely rendered reproduction after the celebrated Renaissance painting by Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, 1483–1520). The original painting, completed around 1513–1514, is housed in the Palazzo Pitti in Florence and is among Raphael’s most beloved depictions of the Madonna and Child. This lithograph captures the grace, intimacy, and refined composition of Raphael's original, presenting the seated Virgin Mary lovingly embracing the infant Jesus while the young Saint John the Baptist looks on devoutly. The detail and emotional depth conveyed through the lithographic technique reflect the high quality of printmaking typical of the 19th century, especially in France and England, where Raphael’s works were revered and widely reproduced for an eager art-loving public. The print was drawn by Lemoine and lithographed by Azeul. It was published in Paris by E. Savary & Cie, Rue du Louvre 10, and also distributed in London by E. Gambart, 25 Berners Street, Oxford Street. It is part of a larger series of masterwork reproductions and is numbered 47. Lithography, the technique used here, allowed for a delicate gradation of tone and fine detail, ideally suited for capturing the subtleties of Renaissance composition and form. This particular example shows the technical finesse of the lithographer in rendering the softness of flesh, folds of fabric, and expressive gazes. This piece would make a stunning addition to any collection of religious art, 19th-century prints, or Raphael-inspired works. Its themes of motherhood, divine love, and innocence give it timeless appeal, making it ideal for display in both classical and contemporary interiors. Condition report: The print is in very good condition for its age. The image area is clean and richly toned. There is some mild foxing and spotting visible in the margins, consistent with age. One tear in top left has been repaired. The edges of the sheet show minor handling wear but do not affect the image. Framing tips: For an elegant presentation, consider framing this piece with a gold or antique wood frame, echoing Renaissance styling. A warm, off-white or cream-colored mat will complement the print without detracting from its detail. For a more contemporary setting, a dark walnut or charcoal grey frame with minimal ornamentation can also enhance the image while preserving a classical atmosphere. Use UV-protective, non-reflective glass to safeguard and highlight the lithograph's tonal delicacy.
