Birth of the Virgin 1473

Pietro Perugino's "Birth of the Virgin" (1473), now housed in the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, UK, depicts the moment of the Virgin Mary's birth. The painting features a serene and balanced composition, typical of the artist's style, with a central focus on the newborn Mary cradled in her mother's arms. The scene is set in a grand, architectural space, highlighting the significance of the event. The delicate details, the use of soft colors, and the harmonious arrangement of figures contribute to the work's serene and devotional character.
