Virgin in Glory with Saints 1515

Giovanni Bellini’s "Virgin in Glory with Saints" (1515) showcases the artist’s mastery of Venetian painting. The Virgin Mary, draped in a rich blue gown, is depicted in glory, surrounded by clouds and angels, while seven saints stand in adoration below. This altarpiece is a prime example of Bellini’s signature style, characterized by a serene atmosphere, luminous colors, and detailed realism. The serene landscape and the meticulous rendering of the figures and their garments contribute to the painting’s devotional power and emotional impact.
