Maria met kind 1475 - 1500

"Maria met Kind" is a marble relief sculpture created by the Italian Renaissance artist Bartolomeo Bellano between 1475 and 1500. The piece, which measures 41 cm in height and 33 cm in width, depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Christ child. The composition is a classic example of the Renaissance Madonna and Child theme, with the figures rendered in a realistic and expressive style. Bellano's work is known for its delicate detail and emotional depth, and this relief is a testament to his skill as a sculptor. The artwork, typical for the early Renaissance, showcases a focus on the human form and emotions, departing from the stylized figures of the medieval era.
