may 2, 1420 - Madonna and Child with Angels
Description:
The picture alludes to Madonna’s humility (she is seated on grass), and to her role of Queen of Heaven (the angels tooled into the gold background suspend a crown over her) and the beloved enclosed in a garden. She unveils her sleeping child—an allusion to his future sacrifice and death.
