EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Carlo Crivelli's masterpiece, "Virgin and Child" painted in 1482. The oil on panel painting, now housed in the Pinacoteca Vaticana in Rome, Italy, exudes an aura of tenderness and devotion. The Virgin Mary is depicted enthroned with the infant Jesus nestled lovingly in her arms. Surrounding them are symbols of abundance and fertility - a bountiful display of fruit including apples and pears, as well as vibrant flowers and garlands. The attention to detail is remarkable; every element meticulously rendered by Crivelli's skilled hand. Mary herself wears exquisite jewelry, adorned with pearls that catch the light beautifully. A pendant hangs delicately from her necklace while an intricately embroidered diadem graces her head. She is shown praying earnestly while a small figure kneels before her in reverence. The background features lush foliage dominated by a majestic bay tree symbolizing victory and triumph. This masterpiece transports us back to the 15th century when religious art held great significance for both artists and patrons alike. Through this print provided by www. bridgemanimages. com, we can appreciate not only Crivelli's artistic genius but also his ability to capture the profound bond between mother and child within a sacred context. It serves as a timeless reminder of faith, love, and devotion that continues to resonate with viewers today.
