The Virgin and Child

Artist: Domenico Ghirlandaio
Artwork: The Virgin and Child
Description: The painting depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Christ child in her arms. The figures are shown in half-length, against a landscape background. The Virgin is dressed in a red gown with a blue mantle, while the Christ child is naked, with a red cloth draped over his shoulder. The painting is a fine example of Ghirlandaio’s skill as a portraitist, and his ability to capture the beauty and innocence of his subjects.
