Description
Summary:The commission of Raphael’s Visitation altarpiece, now in the Prado, has been burdened by historiographic gaps due to the lack of documents pertaining to it. This article is an excerpt from a more extensive research project carried out by the author as part of his undergraduate dissertation on the topic. The article focuses on making public previously unpublished documents, with an aim to establish the historical, social and devotional context of the commission. Through the contextualization of the new sources available, the article defines the true identity of the patron and offers a restricted timeframe for the correct dating of the painting.
