EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of "Madonna and Child with the Four Evangelists" by an anonymous Italian School artist from the 14th century. Measuring 36.8x27.9 cm, this tempera and gold leaf on panel masterpiece can be found at The Dayton Art Institute in Dayton, Ohio, USA. The painting depicts the iconic image of Madonna and Child, with a unique twist - it includes representations of the four Gospel authors or Evangelists: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Positioned strategically around Mary and baby Jesus are incised figures of these revered men who played significant roles in creating the Gospel accounts in the New Testament. The use of gold leaf as a background adds a divine glow to this sacred scene. It symbolizes purity and divinity while emphasizing the importance of Christianity within this artwork. As we gaze upon this early Renaissance piece, we are reminded of its biblical significance. The tender bond between mother and child is beautifully portrayed here – Mary cradles baby Jesus lovingly in her arms while surrounded by symbols representing each evangelist's contribution to spreading Christ's teachings. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' fine art finder service, we can now appreciate every intricate detail captured in this photograph print without commercial intentions but rather for educational purposes only.
