Antwerp school, close to the master of the Clémens Madonna.
Virgin of tenderness, Flammande with swaddled child.
Our work, by an anonymous painter, bears witness to great tenderness
technique in drawing, color and the psyche of the figures.
In the Italian tradition, the Virgin has a gentle face,
reminiscent of Botticelli's Madonnas, with a more modern
modern touch.
The artist pays particular attention to her long, silky hair,
enveloping Mary's maternal face.
Draped in a blue cloak, typical of virginal representations
the artist retains the heritage of the red dress, creating a striking contrast with the
with the composition as a whole.
The swaddled child breaks with the tradition of older children,
learning to walk, more common at the time.
The delicacy of the attitudes, the emotion perceptible in the glances
the profound humanity of the scene.
The Virgin, with her youthful features, totally absorbed in the
contemplation of her child embodies the total devotion of a young mother.
