DescriptionPhotograph of Madonna of Foligno by Raphael, located in The Gallery of the Tapestries, Rome. The painting was comminsioned in 1511 by Sigismondo de' Conti for the high alter of the Church of Saint Maria in Aracoeli in Rome. In 1565, it was passed to the church of Saint Anna at the Monastery of the Contesse in Foligno and then transferred to the collection of the Vatican Pinacotea in 1816.
In the painting, Sigismondo de' Conti is kneeling in prayer on the right when St. Jerome presents him to the Virgin with the Child Jesus in the center. The two figures on the left are St. John the Baptist (dressed in animal skins) and St. Francis.
