Item Description
Lined. Labels on verso- G.B. da Faenza, 1606, but the artist's dates are 1465-1516. A large canvas with the Virgin dressed in red and blue voluminous robes holds the Christ Child on her lap in a landscape as they are visited by the child St. John the Baptist. He presents a large sheep to the Child, symbolizing Christ's later sacrifice. St. John's attribute- the cross- shaped staff with drapery- is on the ground. The artist has used deep chiaroscuro shading overall. The composition of a large scale seated Virgin holding the Christ child on her lap, often along with St. John, is classic Italian Renaissance.

carved and gilt frame 41 3/4 x 33", Depth 2 1/4"
