Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs, Vol. 10: October, 1906 to March, 1907 The motive of the child standing on a parapet was common in Venetian art, and was probably suggested to Raphael by his friend Sebastiano del Piombo. Unfortunately this once lovely work has suffered terribly from neglect and repaint, but not even the restorer's hand has been able wholly to destroy the exquisite charm and tenderness of Raphael's original design.'
