{"product_id":"madonna-and-child-with-saints-marcello-fogolino","title":"Madonna and Child with Saints - Marcello Fogolino","description":"\u003cp\u003eA classic Renaissance sacra conversazione by Marcello Fogolino, featuring the Virgin and Child surrounded by saints within a structured architectural setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work by Marcello Fogolino, an artist active in the Trentino region during the early sixteenth century, presents a traditional sacra conversazione. The Virgin Mary sits enthroned at the centre, holding the Christ Child, while a group of saints gathers around the base of the structure. Fogolino, who was influenced by the Venetian school and the works of Bartolomeo Montagna, employs a clear, architectural framework to organise the figures within the pictorial space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition relies on a symmetrical arrangement, typical of the period, which directs the viewer towards the central figures. The architectural setting, featuring a barrel-vaulted ceiling and classical columns, provides a sense of depth and stability. The artist pays close attention to the textures of the drapery, from the heavy folds of the saints' robes to the delicate fabric surrounding the infant. Small details, such as the hanging fruit and the floral arrangement at the base of the throne, add a layer of naturalistic observation to the formal religious scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFogolino's approach to colour is balanced, using muted tones for the stone architecture to contrast with the saturated reds and blues of the garments. The lighting is even, avoiding dramatic shadows in favour of a clear, readable narrative. This painting reflects the stylistic currents of Northern Italian art during the Renaissance, where the influence of Venetian colourism met a more rigid, structural approach to composition. The inclusion of specific saints, identifiable by their attributes, suggests this piece was commissioned for a private chapel or a specific ecclesiastical setting, intended to inspire contemplation through its orderly and serene presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-a-man-trivulzio-portrait-antonello-da-messina\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of a Man (Trivulzio portrait) - Antonello da Messina — Antonello da Messina\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-ancestors-of-christ-josias-michelangelo-buonarroti\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Ancestors of Christ: Josias - Michelangelo Buonarroti — Michelangelo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Marcello Fogolino","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58782907236687,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58782949146959,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58782949179727,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58782949212495,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58782949245263,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58782949278031,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58782949310799,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58782949343567,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58782949376335,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58782949409103,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58782949441871,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58782949474639,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Madonna-and-Child-with-Saints_Poster_CompositorV1_1789402641520.jpg?v=1789404787","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/madonna-and-child-with-saints-marcello-fogolino","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
