Francesco Salviati, also known as "Cecchino", was an Italian Mannerist painter active during the 16th century. This painting depicts the Coronation of the Virgin, a popular subject in Renaissance and Baroque art. The Virgin Mary stands at the center of the composition, surrounded by angels who crown her with a golden diadem. The scene is filled with rich drapery and dramatic gestures, characteristic of the Mannerist style. The use of light and shadow helps to create a sense of depth and emotion. The depiction of the Virgin Mary's ascension to Heaven symbolizes her divine power and her role as the Queen of Heaven.
