EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from Duccio di Buoninsegna's masterpiece, "Virgin and child on the throne". The focal point of this composition is the serene figure of the Virgin Mary cradling baby Jesus on a magnificent golden throne. Surrounding them are two revered saints, Peter and Agnes, who add an aura of divine presence to the scene. Duccio's expert use of tempera and gold on wood brings out the intricate details and vibrant colors in this artwork. The aureole surrounding Mary symbolizes her holiness, while the lamb at her feet represents Jesus as the sacrificial Lamb of God. Every brushstroke tells a story, capturing not only religious devotion but also artistic brilliance. Displayed at Museo dell Opera del Duomo in Siena, Italy, this painting is part of a larger altarpiece known as La Maesta. Created between 1308-1311 during the Middle Ages, it stands as a testament to Duccio's mastery in depicting biblical characters with utmost reverence. Luisa Ricciarini skillfully captures this momentous artwork through her lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. Her photograph allows us to appreciate every intricate detail up close and highlights how art transcends time and space. Whether you are drawn by its religious significance or simply captivated by its aesthetic appeal, this print serves as a window into one of history's most treasured artistic achievements.
