The ''Madonna of Foligno'' is a painting by the Italian High Renaissance painter Raphael. First painted on wood panel, it was later transferred to canvas. ==History== The painting was executed for Sigismondo de' Conti, chamberlain to Pope Julius II, in 1511. It was placed on a high altar of the church of Santa Maria in Aracoeli on Capitoline Hill (Italian: Campidoglio) in Rome,〔 where Sigismondo was buried in 1512. It was moved by Anna Conti, a descendant of Sigismondi Conti, to the monastery of St. Anne in Foligno in 1565 and remained there for more than two centuries, hence the name.〔〔 In 1799 it was carried to Paris, France by Napoleon. There, in 1802, the painting was transferred from panel to canvas by Hacquin and restored by Roser of Heidelberg.〔〔 The process to transfer a painting from wood panel to canvas was so rare that special note was made by the restorer: "Rapporto dei cittadini Guijon Vincent Tannay e Berthollet sul ristauro dei quadri di Raffaello conosciuto sotto il nome di Madonna di Foligno." 〔 In 1815, after the Battle of Waterloo, it was returned to Italy, where it was placed in the room with the Transfiguration〔〔 in the Pinacoteca Vaticana of the Vatican Museum in the Vatican City. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Madonna of Foligno」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
