Madonna and Child, Perugia 

This painting, *Madonna and Child, Perugia*, by Antoniazzo Romano, depicts the Virgin Mary cradling the Christ Child. The figures are rendered in a realistic style, with delicate facial features and detailed drapery. Mary wears a dark cloak over a red dress, while Jesus is clothed in a simple tunic. The composition is a classic example of the Madonna and Child theme, with the figures arranged in a pyramid shape. The gold background serves as a symbol of heaven and divinity.
