## Artwork

- Artist: [DUCCIO di Buoninsegna](<https://beta.wga.hu/artists/duccio-di-buoninsegna-r4fad75d6f780f9>)
- Date: 1301-1350
- Technique: Tempera on wood

## Commentary

Duccio invented a new type of Madonna-picture by depicting Mary surrounded by a right-knit group of angels, saints and city patrons. The figures are connected to one another by the direction in which they are looking and by their gestures. They can be identified both by their attributes and from the names inscribed on the bottom edge of the picture.
