A Virgem e o Menino

late 1480s
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 606
Giovanni Bellini, que veio de uma família de artistas famosos, incluindo seu pai Jacopo e seu irmão Gentile, desempenhou um papel de destaque entre os artistas venezianos ainda em vida. Os seus pequenos painéis de assuntos religiosos demonstram sua capacidade de combinar a piedade religiosa com o naturalismo e os valores estéticos do início do Renascimento. Aqui, de uma maneira incomum, a cortina atrás das figuras é empurrada para o lado revelando uma paisagem a distância que sob sua luz e atmosfera antecipa as obras de Giorgione e Ticiano. A paisagem é alegórica e transporta o olhar do espectador do fundo árido para um fundo florescente - da morte para o renascimento.
