The picture in question was brought e
London a week ago and submitted 70 =
J. Holmes Slade, professor of line arts al
Oxfcrd. ard Roger Fry. the artist Their
report affirms ITS genuineness.
Evidently it belongs to the last years
of Raphaels life, when the painter
found that the calls upon his energies
made it impossible for him to paint eith-
er frescoes or easel pictures with his own
hand, all he could do being to furnish his
pupils and assistants with designs
sketches and cartoons. leaving the exc
cution chiefly or entirely to them.
The printing, nevertheless, bears the
name of Raphael, and MIR. Fry suggests
that it was designed by Raphael and car
rcd out by the Siennese painter, Bald
assare Peruzzi, who painted in Rome by
the side of Raphael. in Farmesina and
elsewhere and succeeded Raphael as
architect of St. Peters.
