Relaxed Tourists admiring the Coronation of the Virgin in the Pinacoteca of the Vatican Museums. Musei Vaticani, Rome Italy

More information:
In 1505 the nuns of the convent of Monteluce near Perugia commissioned Raphael for a painting of the Coronation of the Virgin. On the death of Raphael (1520) only some drawings were ready. In 1523 Raphael's assistants Giulio Romano and Giovan Francesco Penni were contracted to execute the altarpiece which was finally completed in 1525. The altar represents a compound, iconographically unusual subject, the Assumption and Coronation of the Virgin. The work is made up of two parts, painted on different occasions and then joined together. The most likely hypothesis is that the upper panel with the Coronation of the Virgin (after a sketch by Raphael) is the work of Giulio Romano, while for the lower part with the Apostles gathered around a tomb covered in flowers an altarpiece by Giovan Francesco Penni was used.

The new Vatican Pinacoteca (Art Gallery) opened on October 27, 1932, in a building designed specifically for Pius XI by architect Luca Beltrami. It was constructed in the 19th century Square Garden, which was isolated and entirely surrounded by streets, in a location deemed appropriate for ensuring the best lighting for both the proper preservation and aesthetic enhancement of the works.
