Description: | This is a copy of a painting in the National Gallery, London, which is attributed to the studio of Sandro Botticelli because of the quality of the painting. This version is probably a nineteenth-century copy made by an English painter. Many copies do exist of this piece, suggesting it has always been popular. The artist has captured the distinctive Botticelli-style angel on the right with skill, indicating a marked interest in this figure. The piece was given to the University by Helen Mitchell, daughter of the vicar of St Peter's Church, Woolton, Liverpool. | Subjects: | Angel); figure religion (Virgin and Child St John | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: British School Æ After Botticelli, Sandro (Italian painter and draftsman, born 1444 or 1445, died 1510) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8358... | Go to resource |
