The Virgin and Child

This gilt-bronze Virgin and Child statue was formerly ascribed to Andrea and Nino Pisano and is now ascribed to a follower of Andrea Pisano, made in the middle of the 14th century.

The Virgin stands dressed in flowing garments, holding the Child on her left arm. In her right hand she originally held a lily. The Child, also in flowing garments, holds an apple in his left hand and blesses with his right.
