Madonna and Child 1963

"Madonna and Child" is a 1963 painting by Allan D'Arcangelo. The painting depicts two figures, a woman and a child, against a background of swirling yellow and white rings. The figures are simplified and rendered in flat blocks of color, a hallmark of the Pop Art movement. D'Arcangelo's use of bold color and simple forms reflects the influence of artists like Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg, who were working at the forefront of Pop Art in the early 1960s.
