For instance, Carl removed some golden curls that were added to Christâ™s hair. However, the change in the appearance of the work is not a radical one, but it is definitely closer to how Correggio intended the painting to look back around 1511 when he created it. It is in remarkably good condition for something that is four hundred years old. The painting is located at NGV International on Level 1 in the European 14th-16th century gallery. Pos Madonna and child with the infant saint john the baptist. Estimate. Double Dagger. Though Correggio's earliest surviving documented work is the altarpiece of the Madonna of Saint Francis in the Gemäldegalerie in Dresden, painted 1514-15, several works can be assumed to predate this on the basis of style.4 The considerable size of the work (299 by 245 cm) and the fact that it was commissioned for the largest church in his native town, San Francesco in Correggio, suggest that the artist must have already established himself as a figure of some repute. Amongst the works which must predate the Virgin of Saint Francis but postdate the Washington Madonna and Child are three d St John the Baptist was the patron saint of Maria's father-in-law, and as her brother and father were both lawyers, St Jerome was also included because of his association with the law.
