An engraving reproducing the composition of Raphael's so-called Madonna dei Garofani (or Madonna of the Pinks), a painting currently in the National Gallery, London (inv. no.NG 6596). Not listed in Ruland (1876).
It has been suggested that this engraving may be based upon a print of the same subject (although in reverse) by Jean Boulanger, an impression of which can be found at RCIN 850642. For further discussion, see Bibliographic References.
