Virgin and Child Enthroned, 1419. Creator: Battista di Biagio Sanguigni (Italian
Virgin and Child Enthroned, 1419. Rather than depicting a single moment in time, this gold-ground painting symbolically encapsulates Christ. Seated on a rich throne, the monumental Virgin holds the Christ child. Above, the risen Christ is seen in heaven holding a book, inscribed with the alpha and omega, the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet, signifying Christs role as the beginning and end of all things. The Latin inscription states: " This painting was made for Antonio di Domenicho Giugni for the repose of his soul, the year of our Lord 1419." In the 1300s, Italian painting focused on the heavenly aspects of Christian faith in order to convey abstract religious concepts. Depicted as specimens of formal beauty, sacred figures were placed against an ethereal gold background. Within a hundred years, artists began to highlight the earthly aspects of sacred figures, placing them within naturalistic landscapes. In this newer style of painting, the approachability of sacred figures fostered devotion among the faithful

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Battista di Biagio Sanguigni's "Virgin and Child Enthroned" from 1419. Rather than capturing a single moment, this gold-ground painting symbolically represents Christ in all his glory. The monumental Virgin Mary sits on a lavish throne, cradling the infant Jesus in her arms. Above them, the risen Christ is depicted in heaven, holding a book inscribed with the alpha and omega - the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet that signify Christ's role as both the beginning and end of all things. The Latin inscription on this masterpiece reveals its purpose: it was created for Antonio di Domenicho Giugni to honor his soul's repose in 1419. During the 1300s, Italian painters focused on portraying heavenly aspects of Christian faith to convey abstract religious concepts. Sacred figures were often placed against ethereal gold backgrounds to emphasize their divine nature. However, within a century, artists like Sanguigni began incorporating earthly elements into their paintings by placing sacred figures within naturalistic landscapes. This newer style aimed to make these revered figures more relatable and approachable for devout viewers. Through this stunning print by Heritage Art/Heritage Images, we can appreciate not only Sanguigni's artistic mastery but also how art evolved over time to foster devotion among believers through its beauty and accessibility.
