VITTORE CRIVELLI. Madonna and Child With Two Angels

Madonna and Child with Two Angels. Artist: Vittore Crivelli (Italian, Venice, active by 1465-died 1501/2 Fermo). Dimensions: 21 7/8 x 16 in. (55.6 x 40.6 cm). Date: ca. 1481-82.
This charming Madonna and Child employs some of the same pictorial devices used by Vittore's brother Carlo, building up the gold to create three-dimensional embellishments. The parapet is inscribed with Vittore's name and on it are placed a carnation (emblem of love), cherries (like the apple, symbol of original sin), and a devotional book. The Child holds a goldfinch, symbolic of the Passion of Jesus.
