БР и Младенец со свв. Иоанном Богословом и Петром {3210}
Virgin and Child with SS John the Evangelist and Peter

Nardo di Cione
история:
Nardo painted this small work similar to a church altarpiece for use in private devotion at home.
It may have been specifically commissioned or bought
Nardo's Virgin, despite her soft expression, appears removed from human concerns. Bright, artificial colors separate her from the real world, and the stiff saints on either side underscore her hierarchical importance.
Perhaps intensified religious sentiment following the plague of 1348 - when up to half the population of Italian cities died within a few weeks - prompted this conservatism. Or perhaps the deaths of so many artists and patrons changed the nature of commissions and workshop practice.
