"The Assumption of the Virgin" is a 1362 painting by Luca di Tommé, depicting the ascension of the Virgin Mary into Heaven, surrounded by a host of angels. The painting is a classic example of the Sienese School of painting, notable for its gold backgrounds and the use of strong, vibrant colors. The composition is symmetrical and hieratic, with the Virgin Mary positioned centrally as the focal point. This painting reflects the spiritual beliefs of the time, celebrating the Virgin Mary as a divine figure, and her journey to Heaven symbolizes her divine status.
