Virgin and Child with the Child Baptist and Two Angels is a 1497 tempera by Raffaellino del Garbo, a Early Renaissance work, held at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.
This painting shows a serene scene with the Virgin Mary and the Child Jesus at the center.

The background of the painting features a landscape with trees and a body of water, adding depth to the scene. The use of tempera as the medium gives the painting a sense of warmth and intimacy. The artist's attention to detail and use of color create a sense of harmony in the painting.
