Holy Family with Saint John the Baptist as a child, Domenico Beccafumi, between 1518 and 1519

"the painting appears since 1624 in a medici inventory as a work by beccafumi, together with its gilded frame carved with cherub heads. The critical debate does not focus on the autography of the painting, but rather on its dating which judey (1932) places around 1520, samminiatelli at 1518-19 due to stylistic affinities found with the frescoes of the oratory of s. Bernardino in siena, and for precise references in the "st. John with a putto" of the sistine chapel next to the prophet isaiah. " [1]. Date: between 1518 and 1519. Dimensions: diameter: 84 cm (33 in). Medium: oil on panel. Collection: Uffizi Gallery. Beccafumi - Sacra Famiglia con San Giovanni Battista bambino, 1180236
