{"product_id":"madonna-and-child-with-two-angels-ambrogio-bergognone","title":"Madonna and Child with Two Angels - Ambrogio Bergognone","description":"\u003cp\u003eA serene Renaissance devotional panel by Ambrogio Bergognone, featuring the Virgin Mary and Christ Child flanked by two angels against a gilded ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis devotional panel by Ambrogio Bergognone displays the characteristic restraint and clarity associated with the Lombard school of the late fifteenth century. The composition centres on the Virgin Mary, who holds the Christ Child in a tender, protective embrace. Flanking them are two angels, their expressions and postures suggesting a quiet, reverent atmosphere. The figures are set against a gilded background, a traditional choice that emphasises the sacred nature of the subjects while providing a warm, reflective surface that interacts with the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBergognone, active primarily in Milan and the Certosa di Pavia, is known for his calm, meditative approach to religious subjects. His work often avoids the dramatic movement seen in contemporary Florentine art, favouring instead a sense of stillness and internalised emotion. The drapery of the Virgin's mantle, rendered in deep blue with gold-trimmed edges, provides a visual anchor for the composition. The Christ Child is depicted with a naturalistic touch, reaching towards his mother while holding a small book, a detail that introduces a human element to the divine narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painting reflects the transition from the late Gothic aesthetic to the balanced proportions of the High Renaissance. The faces are painted with soft transitions, showing the artist's skill in modelling form through light and shadow. The inclusion of the open book at the bottom of the frame serves as a subtle reference to the theological significance of the figures. This work remains a representative example of the devotional art produced for private chapels and domestic settings during the period, offering a glimpse into the aesthetic values of the Lombard Renaissance.\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=\"\/sv\/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=\"\/sv\/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":"Ambrogio Bergognone","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58786210677071,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58786231812431,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58786231845199,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58786231877967,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58786231910735,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58786231943503,"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":58786231976271,"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":58786232009039,"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":58786232041807,"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":58786232074575,"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":58786232107343,"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":58786232140111,"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-Two-Angels_Poster_CompositorV1_1789441564992.jpg?v=1789442537","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/sv\/products\/madonna-and-child-with-two-angels-ambrogio-bergognone","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
