Description: | This image of the Virgin with the Christ child blessing is possibly a late copy of a devotional painting by the Bolognese artist Francesco Francia. Different versions of the same composition were produced by Francia. Their popularity is attested by the number of copies and imitations painted after Francia's death. The robe worn by the Christ child is probably a later addition. | Subjects: | religion (Virgin and Child) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Francia, Francesco (Italian painter and goldsmith, ca. 1450-1517) Æ Attributed to after Previously attributed to Italian (Bolognese) School | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9002... | Go to resource |
