Description

This work depicts the Virgin Mary with the Child Jesus and St. John the Baptist as a child in an intimate and delicate composition, immersed in in an atmosphere of sweetness and spirituality. Mary, symbol of grace and purity, lovingly holds the Child, while John, with a contemplative expression, indicates his divine nature. The background is usually characterized by a serene landscape, which accentuates the harmony between the sacred and the earthly, typical of Botticelli's style, with elegant lines and refined details.

Information
