Madonna and Child 1960

"Madonna and Child" by Paul Guiragossian, created in 1960, is a vibrant oil painting that showcases the artist's unique style. The composition is divided into distinct sections, each filled with figures and scenes that seem to exist within a narrative mosaic. The central focus is the Madonna and Child, their figures rendered in bold strokes and rich hues, evoking a sense of warmth and intimacy. The surrounding sections feature other figures, such as angels and saints, their forms simplified and stylized, adding a sense of depth and complexity to the overall composition. This work exemplifies Guiragossian's ability to blend traditional iconography with a modern, expressive sensibility.
