## Commentary

This Madonna and Child on display in Castello Sforzesco is of unknown origin and can be dated to around the 1420s. It was designed to be seen from all sides, as shown by the soft folds sculpted on the back, and the fluid, abundant drapery envelops the body of the Virgin, almost hiding it.
