Description:
|
There is evidence that the "Master of the Marble Madonnas" may be a group of artists, and not the work of a single person. The name was coined by Bode (1892-1905) for an anonymous sculptor, apparently Tuscan, possibly trained in the workshop of Mino da Fiesole and influenced by Antonio Rossellino. Numerous sculptures have been attributed to him on the basis of related compositions, drapery forms, ornamental motifs and pronounced mannerisms. Chief among the latter is a peculiar feline smile from heavy-lidded eyes and a taut jaw, at its best radiating inward joy but often acerbic or bordering on the manic. The Master’s eclectic shop and followers produced marble reliefs of the Virgin and Child, busts and reliefs of the suffering Christ and busts of children.
