Description: Bonjour de Bourgogne ;-) The Breastfeeding Virgin by Ambrogio Lorenzetti (c. 1290 – 1348), reproduction on wooden panelReproduction of the painting by Ambrogio Lorenzetti: Madonna del latte, held at the Siena Museum (Italy) in tempera and gold on panel.The Virgin Mary depicted breastfeeding the Child Jesus constitutes one of the favorite themes of Sienese painting. The particular eloquence of this moment of maternal intimacy should logically find an immediate and powerful echo in the city of which the Virgin is both the secular protector and the reigning sovereign, and which, moreover, also carries within herself the consoling image of the mother.The approach is profoundly new, and no other painter will be able to repeat it so brilliantly for a long time. For the first time in the history of medieval art, Mary gives her nourishing breast to a truly hungry Child.Good condition, some scratches on the face and the halo of the Virgin Mary (see photos). The wooden panel is worm-eaten but is now stabilized.
