"The Pesaro Madonna" is an etching by Valentin Lefebvre, completed in 1682, the year of the artist's death. This artwork is a reproduction of Titian's painting of the same name. It portrays the Virgin Mary and child in a grand setting, with the Pesaro family kneeling in adoration, surrounded by angels and other figures. Lefebvre's etching captures the intricate details and composition of Titian's original work, making it an important example of printmaking in the 17th century. This etching is a testament to Lefebvre's mastery of the medium, as it conveys the depth and complexity of Titian's original composition. "The Pesaro Madonna" is a beautiful and insightful piece that showcases the artistry of both Titian and Lefebvre.
