EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Virgin and Child" a remarkable oil painting created by Antonello da Messina in the late 15th century. The artwork, measuring 43.2 by 34.3 cm, is housed in the National Gallery of London, UK. In this religious image, da Messina skillfully depicts the tender bond between the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus Christ. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings forth a sense of awe and reverence as we witness their divine connection. The vibrant colors used in this Renaissance masterpiece add depth and richness to the scene. A crown adorned with precious jewels rests on Mary's head, symbolizing her esteemed role as the Queen of Heaven. A pomegranate lies nearby, representing fertility and abundance.
