We visited the church of San Pietro on the brow of the hill on which Perugia is situated; it contains many interesting pictures,.... I remarked a lovely little picture in the corner of the sacristy which none present seemed to know anything about, but I have since found it thus described in Passavant's life of Raffaelle by whom it was painted when he was still in the School of Perugino.[followed by long quotation from Passavant's Life of Raphael, Vol 2. p.4]
