# Virigin and Child [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [PIETRO DI GIOVANNI D'AMBROGIO]() - Date: 1401-1450 - Technique: Tempera and tooled gold on poplar panel, 98 x 53 cm ## Commentary This panel belonged to an altarpiece, now dismembered. According to the reconstruction accepted by many scholars, the altarpiece consisted of a Virgin and Child in the centre \(Brooklyn Museum, New York\), St Augustin \(Lindenau-Museum, Altenburg\) at the left, and probably St Nicholas \(lost\) at the right. The three predella panels are the Departure of St Augustin \(Staatliche Museen, Berlin\), the Entry of Christ to Jerusalem \(Pinacoteca Stuard, Parma\), and the Birth of St Nicholas \(Kunstmuseum, Basel\). ## Related artworks - [Adoration of the Shepherds between Sts Augustin and Galgano \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds between Sts Augustin and Galgano \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds between Sts Augustin and Galgano]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds]() - [Assumption of the Virgin]() - [Birth of St Nicholas]() - [Departure of St Augustin]() - [Entry of Christ into Jerusalem]() - [Flagellation of St Bartolomew]() - [Reconstruction of a polyptych]() - [St Augustin \(detail\)]() - [St Augustin]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
