EDITORS COMMENTS

The composition exudes a sense of awe as Mary rises towards the heavens, her serene expression reflecting her acceptance of this heavenly fate. The roundel format adds to the overall impact of the artwork, drawing viewers into its ethereal realm. The presence of cherubim and seraphim further enhances the spiritual atmosphere portrayed in "The Assumption of the Virgin".
