 See Details

The Virgin Mary in the deep shadow of her seated lower half, is only withheld from the viewer by the sumptuous arm of her chair; she is unapproachable; her saintliness beyond question. She gazes lovingly, with her hands in the gesture of prayer, on the smiling angel who offers up the infant Christ to her. 

This painting is Tempera on panel and it is housed in The Uffizi Gallery, Florence, Italy.
