Assumption of the Virgin (Reni, Lyon)

Assumption of the Virgin (1637) by Guido Reni

Assumption of the Virgin is a 1637 oil on canvas painting by Guido Reni, now in the musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon, which acquired it in 1805. It originally had a semi-circular panel above it showing God the Father - this is now in Bologna.

The Assumption was a recurring theme in Reni's work. This work was commissioned by Luigi Capponi, archbishop of Ravenna, to decorate one of the chapel altars in the Philippine church in Perugia.
