Sandro Botticelli's "Virgin and Child with Two Angels" (1485-1495) exemplifies the artist's characteristic graceful figures and delicate lines. Depicted within a circular frame, the Virgin Mary stands with the Christ Child, surrounded by two adoring angels. The soft, flowing drapery and the ethereal poses of the figures contribute to the work's overall sense of spirituality. The verdant landscape behind them, reminiscent of Botticelli's famous "Primavera," adds a touch of earthly beauty to the divine scene. This painting is a testament to Botticelli's mastery of Early Renaissance art, showcasing the beauty and grace that characterized the period.
