Virgin and Child Enthroned, with Two Dominican Saints and Two Angels
by ARCANGELO DI JACOPO DEL SELLAIO, Tempera on panel, 38 x 30 cm
Son of Jacopo del Sellaio, Arcangelo took over the family workshop following his father’s death in 1493. He assimilated Jacopo’s style and, eschewing the more Mannerist tendencies of his contemporaries, adopted a deliberately archaic approach to painting.
