Description
This marble relief depicts the Virgin and the Child, which was a very popular theme for the reliefs during the Renaissance. This composition is thought to be based on a design by Florentine artist Andrea del Verrocchio, which was widely imitated in marble and terracotta. A few marble reliefs close in style to this one have recently been attributed to a Florentine sculptor called Matteo del Pollaiolo, whose brother Simone was an architect, and whose cousins Antonia and Piero Pollaiolo ran a highly successful workshop
