Verified profile

Together with the Madonna of the Rosary, it constitutes one of the most representative testimonies of Saturnino Gatti's painting in the city of L'Aquila. Both were commissioned by patrons of high rank and destined for prestigious places. In fact, the splendid panel with a background in zecchino gold is a monumental and solemn work, created for the Chapel of the Palace of the Captain of Justice in L'Aquila (later the Palace of Margherita of Austria). The Virgin is seated on an almost architectural marble throne, surmounted by a canopy with the city coat of arms. Two angels with joined hands flank the Virgin, on whose lap, resting on a cushion, sits the Child, who holds carnations in his hands, a symbol of the future Passion. The archaic taste frame, the fine punchings of the gold background, and the precious details found, for example, in the Madonna's dress, confirm the intention to reaffirm the nobility and prestige.
