¿Dónde está «Enthroned Virgin and Child» hoy? Museo de Arte de Cleveland, 110B Late Gothic, Cleveland. Sí, expuesta ahora. Comprobado 29 de septiembre de 2026.
The seated Virgin Mary with Christ is one of the most popular themes in Christian art of the Middle Ages. Alabaster was an ideal material to depict the fleshiness of Jesus, the lush folds of Mary’s cloak, and the fine details of the throne and gown. Christ is reaching for something in his mother’s hand that is now unrecognizable because alabaster tends to break or wear away quickly. It may have been a book or a piece of fruit. Given its small size, it is likely that this sculpture was intended for private use.
