Virgin and Child with Five Angels
by AGOSTINO DI DUCCIO, Marble relief, 57 x 51 cm
The style of this relief resembles sculptures in the Tempio Malatestiano at Rimini in Italy. Agostino di Duccio was responsible for much of the sculptural decoration there from 1449 until 1457. The attendant angels of the relief are particularly close in style to the Playing Children in the Chapel of the Infant Games in the Tempio, that were also probably carved by Agostino.
