Pope Leo X commissioned from Raphael the Holy Family (now in the Louvre), for which this sketch was made, and sent it to France, perhaps in celebration of a royal birth. After World War II, the drawing was attributed to Raphael's close associate Giulio Romano, author of other figures in the painting. | |
