Sale - Mino da Fiesole: Virgin and Child

ENLARGE

Our reproduction is based on a marble relief, Virgin and Child, by the Renaissance sculptor Mino da Fiesole (Italian [Florentine], 1429–1484). The original relief, now in the Museum’s collection, depicts the Virgin holding the Christ Child, seated on a cushion, with her veil falling over his lap. The baby Christ holds in his left hand an orb surmounted by a cross while he raises his right hand in benediction—symbols associated with Christ. Both figures appear gracefully subdued, as if engaged in silent contemplation. The tender, protective gesture of the Virgin’s right hand is especially poignant.

Cast resin, hand patinated. Height 21 1/8 in., width 15 1/8 in., depth 4 1/2 in. Includes a notch in the back for hanging.

This item cannot be gift wrapped or boxed. See details.
