Virgin and Child Enthroned with Angels Making Music c. 1430

"Virgin and Child Enthroned with Angels Making Music", created around 1430 by an anonymous artist, is a devotional painting that highlights the Virgin Mary and her son, Jesus, in an ethereal setting. The central figures, depicted in grand attire, are surrounded by angels playing musical instruments, symbolizing heavenly praise and the joy of the Virgin's holy motherhood. The intricate details of the throne and the ornate decoration of the garments contribute to the piece's sense of majesty and religious devotion. Now housed in the Städel Museum, this artwork is a beautiful example of the artistic styles prevalent in 15th-century Europe.
