History

It is dated to around 15141519,[1] sometime between his Madonna and Child with St Francis (15141515) and his lost Albinea Madonna (15171519).[2] It has been attributed to Correggio since the late 19th century.[3] In 1865 it was left by Gian Giacomo Attendolo Bolognini to the Pinacoteca del Castello Sforzesco in Milan, where it now hangs.[4] It is compositionally related to the artist's Madonna and Child with the Infant John the Baptist.
