This is the first scholary publication of a painting by Carlo Maratti with "Saint Francesca Romana Receiving the Christ Child from the Virgin, in the Presence of Saints Peter and Augustine" in an oratory in Pietrasanta. The work is in very good condition and is mentioned in nineteenth-century sources, but the private character of the small place of worship that houses it had led to its begin forgotten, even in the city in which it is located. The painting is of excellent quality and is composed of a series of citations from other works by Maratti; this allows it to be dated to between 1672 and about 1675.
