19th c. Holy Family is copy after Palma Vecchio

Mehlis, from Germany, sells on 25 August 2016 a "Holy Family with Joseph and Elisabeth", a 19th century anonymous painting estimated at 180 Euro.

It is a reasonably well executed copy after Palma Vecchio's "Sacra Conversazione" from the Venice Accademia. For its size and quality, it is rather cheap as well. As usual with these, it's a bit strange that the auction house didn't realise the origin of this work.
