Description
The Madonna and Child is a very frequent theme in Christian art. However, in the 13-14th century the representation changes and more tenderness appears between the mother and her child. In this very refined relief from the end of the 15th century, the technique of sculpting as well as the rule of proportions enables the Ferrucci to make the relationship between the Virgin and her child visible to the spectator. The baby's hand on his mother's chest, her closed eyes, the way she holds him, are as many simple gestures that are universal to all mothers and their children.
