Madonna with St. Julian and St. Laurenzius 1423

"Madonna with St. Julian and St. Laurenzius," painted by Gentile da Fabriano in 1423, is an exquisite example of Italian Gothic art. This painting depicts the Virgin Mary seated on a throne with the Christ Child on her lap, while St. Julian and St. Laurenzius kneel in prayer below them. The intricate gilded frame and lavish costumes of the figures are characteristic of Fabriano's style, known for its vibrant colors and attention to detail. Currently on display at the Frick Collection in New York City, this masterpiece offers a glimpse into the artistic sensibilities of early 15th-century Italy.
