1518
unspecified
From the collection of Galleria Borghese
Madonna col Bambino e san Giovannino is a 1518 unspecified by Andrea del Sarto, depicting Christ Child, held at Galleria Borghese.
This painting depicts a woman in a pink dress with a black cloak, sitting with two babies. The woman's dress is a vibrant pink, while her cloak is a deep black. She has a gentle expression on her face as she looks down at the babies. The babies are both fair-skinned and have curly hair. One baby is standing on the woman's lap, while the other is sitting on the ground beside her. The background of the painting is a soft, muted color. The woman's dress and cloak are rendered in exquisite detail, with intricate folds and textures that give the painting a sense of depth and dimensionality. The babies' faces are also beautifully rendered, with delicate features and expressive eyes. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Andrea del Sarto, an Italian artist known for his beautiful and delicate renderings of the human form.
Andrea del Sarto was an Italian painter from Florence, whose career flourished during the High Renaissance and early Mannerism.
