The ''Small Cowper Madonna'' is a painting by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael, depicting Mary and Child, in a typical Italian countryside. It has been dated to around 1505,〔https://www.nga.gov/collection/gallery/gg20/gg20-1196.html〕 the middle of the High Renaissance. ==Story== It is not known exactly why the Small Cowper Madonna was painted. It was probably either a private commission 〔https://keephistoryalive.wordpress.com/2013/02/13/art-history-wednesday-the-small-cowper-madonna/〕 or for the general art market; images of the Madonna and Child were often given as wedding presents.〔https://www.nga.gov/collection/gallery/gg20/gg20-1196.html〕 It is widely thought that the church on the right hand side of the painting is the church of San Bernardino,〔https://keephistoryalive.wordpress.com/2013/02/13/art-history-wednesday-the-small-cowper-madonna/〕 where the Dukes of Urbino (where Raphael was born〔http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/artists/raphael〕) were buried, and it has been suggested that the presence of the church means the painting may have been "commissioned by the family for devotional purposes."〔https://keephistoryalive.wordpress.com/2013/02/13/art-history-wednesday-the-small-cowper-madonna/〕 At the same time, it could just be Raphael drawing on memories of the church, which would have been near where he grew up in Urbino.
