Description:
|
|
Among Piero’s last works is the Senigallia Madonna (painted for Santa Maria delle Grazie, Senigallia), an intimate depiction of the Virgin and Child between two silvery-blue and pink angels with a view into a background room. The extraordinary effect of reflected light from the shuttered window there is a distant prelude to Dutch 17th-century painting. From its small scale the painting was intended for private devotion. The Christ Child wears a necklace of coral, an allusion to the Eucharist. (Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordart online.com/)
