Andrea SolarioPARIS, LOUVRE LA VIERGE AU COUSSIN VERT The Virgin, in a red robe and blue mantle, with a white veil over her head and shoulders, bends over the Holy Child, who lies on a green cushion. His head to our left-His right leg bent so as to allow His right hand to caress the foot. With her right hand His mother supports His shoulders, and with her left gives Him her right breast. The cushion rests on a ledge of marble; behind the Virgin is a tree in full leaf, beyond which on either side is seen a distant landscape. ( Originally Publihed 1910 ) |
