History The Virgin and Child are shown accompanied by the saints Stephen, Jerome, and Maurice.Gronau 1904, p. 282. Gronau thinks that this picture may belong to the period about 1508 to 1510. The Louvre dates it to between 1510 and 1525. The type of the Virgin here is like the one in the Madrid Sacra Conversazione and the Annunciation in Treviso. The figure of Saint Stephen is comparable with the servant's head in the Salome in the Galleria Doria Pamphilj, Rome.Gronau 1904, p. 282–283. A type like the Saint Jerome is to be found in one of the Padua frescoes.Gronau 1904, p. 283.

The picture entered the Louvre from the collection of Louis XIV.
