Madonna and Child with Sts Catherine and Barbara 1525

This Renaissance oil painting, created in 1525 by Bernardino Luini, depicts the Madonna and Child with Saints Catherine and Barbara. The composition features the Virgin Mary and Christ Child at the center, with Saint Catherine, who holds a palm branch and book, on the left and Saint Barbara on the right, both with attributes that identify them. Luini's style is often characterized by its soft and delicate brushwork, which is evident in the figures' faces and drapery. The painting is currently housed at the Budapest Museum of Fine Arts.
