Fodor's Review:

The Casa Natale di Raffaello (House of Raphael) is the house in which the painter was born and where he took his first steps in painting, under the direction of his artist father. There is some debate about the fresco of the Madonna here; some say it's by Raphael, whereas others attribute it to the father – with Raphael's mother and the young painter himself standing in as models for the Madonna and Child.
