## Commentary

The tranquil calm of this scene was derived from cleverly following Raphael&#39;s model. It sums up the way that Maratti managed serenely to dominate the image he painted. Pietro da Cortona&#39;s exuberance had by now subsided. From this we can deduce that Roman art was losing its impetus after the death of Bernini \(1680\) and was about to enter a phase of soporific academicism.
