A Assunção da Virgem

Bernardo Daddi Italian

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 952

Bernardo Daddi foi o mais importante pintor florentino da geração posterior a Giotto. Este painel provavelmente formava a parte superior de um retábulo importante pintado para a capela do Sacro Cingolo na catedral de Prato, perto de Florença, onde se conserva a preciosa relíquia do cinto da Virgem. Aqui, a Virgem Maria é transportada aos céus por seis anjos e, como prova de sua Assunção, entrega seu cinto a Santo Tomás, cujas mãos são visíveis na extremidade inferior esquerda. Na metade inferior do retábulo, hoje perdida, apareciam Santo Tomás e os outros apóstolos reunidos ao redor do leito de morte da Virgem.
