Best Answer

Perhaps it is interesting to know that there are 28 paintings of Madonna and Clhild bt Raphael in existence. So talking about "this painting" is slightly misleading.

Raphael was on the same level as Michelangelo and da Vinci during the High Italian Renaissance. Not only did these 3 artists inspire the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but their works are used daily in art classes the world over to inspire art students.

The fame of this painting relies on the fame of the artist, since his 'Madonna and Child' is far down the list of his best known works. The image has been reproduced in many forms, and so it is well known to many people.

When he moved to Rome he was almost immediately commissioned by Pope Julius ll, who asked him to fresco a room which was to become the pope's private library.
