About the piece
Painted in 1820 by Alexandre-Évariste Fragonard, this work captures the intimate creative process within Raphael's studio. The master artist is depicted in historical dress, leaning forward to guide his models—a woman and child—into the perfect configuration for the masterpiece seen in progress on the easel. The soft, dramatic lighting and rich textures of the studio environment exemplify the Romantic era's reverence for the great masters of the past.
