Description:
|
|
An early work by Botticelli. The theme of the Madonna and Child embracing, which was extremely widespread in the sculpture and painting of the Quattrocento, is derived from a Byzantine pictorial type. What is new here is the motif of the loggia, which still makes a rather flat impression behind the figures, although the even fall of the light is attempting to integrate it properly into the scene. The painting was cleaned and restored ca. 2010. (Source: Web Gallery of Art; http://www.wga.hu/in dex.html)
