EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Filippo Lippi's masterpiece, "Madonna and Child Enthroned with Two Angels" created around 1440. The painting, dating back to the fifteenth century, epitomizes the essence of Renaissance art and religious devotion. In this enchanting composition, we witness the Virgin Mary seated on an ornate golden throne, cradling baby Jesus in her arms. Two angelic figures flank them on either side, their delicate wings shimmering with gold accents. The artist's meticulous use of tempera and gold on wood brings a radiant glow to the scene. The Madonna exudes grace and serenity as she gazes lovingly at her divine child while holding an open book symbolizing wisdom and knowledge. This portrayal reflects both her role as a mother and her significance within Christianity. Filippo Lippi's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate patterns adorning Mary's robe to the subtle expressions captured on each face. The vibrant colors used throughout add depth and richness to this sacred moment frozen in time. This remarkable artwork now resides at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, where it continues to inspire visitors with its beauty and spiritual resonance. As we contemplate this image, we are reminded of the enduring power of maternal love, faith, and artistic mastery that transcends time itself.
