This painting shows scenes from the life of Christ and the Virgin in gold and tempera on panel. It's interesting because it was made for a private chapel in a palace, showing the wealth and faith of its owner. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of another artist, but for now, check out the museum: Art Institute of Chicago.
