NANNI DI BARTOLO
(active 1419-1435)

Virgin and Child

1420-23
Pigmented terracotta, height 140 cm
Cenacolo di Ognissanti, Florence

The loosely swathed drapery conforms to a type that Nanni deployed in a series of works, of which the the Virgin and Child now in the Ognissanti in Florence is characteristic.

The statue came from San Salvatore al Monte, Florence.
