# Virgin and Child [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [BOCCACCINO, Boccaccio]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Oil on panel, 47 x 36 cm ## Commentary The faces of the Madonna and Christ Child correspond in style to those painted by Boccaccio Boccaccino during a sojourn in Venice early on in his career. Boccaccino was documented in Venice in 1505 and his works from this period bear the influence of Giovanni Bellini, reflected here in serene expressions, harmonious composition and elegantly posed figures. An alternative attribution of the panel to Pasqualino Veneto was also suggested. ## Related artworks - [Annunciation to Joachim]() - [Annunciation to Mary]() - [Betrothal of Mary]() - [Birth of Mary]() - [Christ in Majesty with the Patron Saints of Cremona]() - [Gypsy Girl]() - [Liber Iesus]() - [Meeting at the Golden Gate]() - [St John the Evangelist]() - [St Matthew]() - [Virgin and Child]() - [Virgin and Child]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
