Virgin And Child, c1465-70. Creator: Matteo di Giovanni
Virgin And Child, c1465-70. Jesus raises one hand in blessing, a solemn expression on his face. The Virgin Mary appears pensive as she gently touches her son's shoulder, suggesting she foresees his future suffering. Later in life, according to Saint John's Gospel, Jesus would say, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life," the first two words of which--"Ego Su[m]"--appear on his scroll

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant depiction of Virgin and Child (c1465-70), Italian artist Matteo di Giovanni masterfully captures a tender moment between Mary, mother of God, and her young son Jesus. The scene is bathed in warm golden light, with the Virgin's gentle touch on Jesus' shoulder conveying a sense of foreboding - as if she already knows the trials that lie ahead for her beloved child. Meanwhile, Jesus raises his hand in blessing, exuding an air of solemnity and wisdom beyond his years. The subtle expression on Mary's face suggests a deep understanding of the path her son will soon embark upon, one marked by sacrifice and redemption. This exquisite print from Heritage Images offers a glimpse into the early Renaissance era when art was characterized by its emotional intensity and attention to detail. Matteo di Giovanni's Virgin and Child is not only a testament to his skill as an artist but also a powerful reminder of the enduring themes of motherhood, faith, and devotion that have captivated humanity for centuries.
