Tuscan Master1370-1400. Tempera on wood. 75 x 39,5cm. Tabernacle frame. Provenance: Private ownership, Switzerland. The example of the present painting of the Madonna with Child goes back to Tuscan compositions of the early 14th century. However, the softness of the modelling and the more intimate and loving interpretation of the relationship between the Madonna and the Child suggest a date at the end of the century. It is probably a painting destined for personal devotion, equipped with the typical flaming ogival frame characteristic of Tuscan panels of the period. The quality of the work can also be seen in the execution of the refined punching that embellishes both the halos and the edge of the panel.
