Virgin and Child with Saints 

Luca di Tommé's *Virgin and Child with Saints* is a notable example of Sienese painting from the 14th century. The altarpiece features a central panel depicting the Virgin Mary seated on a throne, holding the Christ Child. They are flanked by four saints, including Saint John the Baptist, an unidentified female saint, and two male saints holding books. The use of gold leaf and the elongated figures with delicate features are characteristic of the Sienese style. This artwork exemplifies the devotional nature of painting during this period, emphasizing the sacred figures and their connection to the divine.
