# Madonna Enthroned with the Infant Christ and Saints [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [ANTONIAZZO ROMANO]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Oil on panel, 166 x 165 cm ## Commentary The panel is signed at the center bottom, "ANTHONATIUS ROMANUS", while the carved pilaster to the right of the throne bears the date 1487 \(in Roman numerals\). The Madonna is flanked by St Paul and St Francis. The picture, which has suffered from numerous restorations, was originally on the high altar of the church of San Paolo in Poggio Nativo. Iconographically, it is an example of the most traditional altarpiece format. In terms of style this piece locates Antoniazzo between the Melozzo da Forli and the Umbrian school, two influences that summarize the basic currents of Antoniazzo's pictorial culture. ## Related artworks - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation]() - [Madonna Adoring the Child]() - [Madonna and Child]() - [Madonna and Child with the Infant St John the Baptist]() - [Nativity with Sts Lawrence and Andrew]() - [Profile Portrait of Cardinal Philippe de Lévis]() - [The Navicella]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
