Verified profile

Despite the very abraded pictorial film, the fragment of the Madonna and Child fresco has a bright color and a very delicate and refined design. In the image, the Virgin, a young woman sadly presages the fate of her Son, holds the blessing baby Jesus in her arms, holding a goldfinch in her left hand, an animal dear to children. and traditionally connected to the Passion of Christ. The painting is attributable to Agnolo Gaddi, who painted it in the years when he was frescoing the Chapel of the Sacra Cintola in the Duomo. The fresco was recovered in the area of the Palazzo delle Scuole, the building with a portico adjacent to the Praetorium, in a room originally connected to the medieval church of San Donato.
