# Madonna and Child [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [GOZZOLI, Benozzo]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Tempera on panel, 84,8 x 50,6 cm ## Commentary Madonna and Child c. 1460 Tempera on panel, 84,8 x 50,6 cm Institute of Arts, Detroit This Madonna and Child among Cherubim and Seraphim has a great force, owing to intense and almost visionary plasticism. It is particularly effective for its combination of sumptuous detail in the clothing, ornamented more in the manner of the goldsmith than of the painter \(see the jeweled border of the Virgin's dress, painted o a slight relief of plaster\), with the essential solidity of the brightly coloured angels, sheltered by their numerous wings. ## Related artworks - [Adoration of the Magi]() - [Angels Worshipping \(left side of the chancel, detail\)]() - [Angels Worshipping \(left side of the chancel, detail\)]() - [Angels Worshipping \(left side of the chancel, detail\)]() - [Angels Worshipping \(left side of the chancel\)]() - [Angels Worshipping \(left side of the chancel\)]() - [Angels Worshipping \(right side of the chancel\)]() - [Arrival of St Augustine in Milan \(scene 8, north wall\)]() - [Assumption of the Virgin]() - [Baptism of St Augustine \(scene 11, east wall\)]() - [Birth of Mary]() - [Blessing of the Faithful at Hippo \(scene 14, north wall\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
