Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) was a prominent Florentine Renaissance painter known for his graceful figures and mythological themes. His iconic works include “The Birth of Venus” and “Primavera”, showcasing elegant lines and a distinctive style that defined early Renaissance art.
This exquisite Botticelli panel depicts the Virgin Mary enthroned with the Christ Child, featuring an arched top with gilding. Originally from Florence’s Oratorio of San Giuliano in the early 19th century, the work demonstrates workshop involvement yet displays remarkable finesse and careful execution. The composition derives from Botticelli’s Sant’Ambrogio altarpiece but adapts the central figures for independent devotional purposes. The panel’s golden pilasters and elegant treatment reflect Renaissance spiritual artistry. Scholars have recognized it as a very finely executed work, with one describing it as “a charming picture” that captures the grace characteristic of Botticelli’s style.
