The Madonna with Beardless Saint Joseph is an early painting by
Virgin Mary, and the Christ Child.[1]
It is usually thought to be one of the small Madonnas painted by Raphael for
Catherine II of Russia in 1772, forming the core of the future Hermitage Museum.[4]
The work was restored early in the 19th century, leading Alexander Pushkin to write the poem Renaissance and to refer to the work in his Mozart and Salieri, having his version of Salieri state "I don't find it funny when the painter is useless / It stains Raphael's Madonna for me".[5]
