About this artwork
The inspiration for this work is a fifteenth century painting by Jean Fouquet ca. 1420 – 1477-81 known as Virgin and Child (Melun diptych). Fouquet’s is a striking portrait of the Madonna and Child surrounded by colorful “putti”. Though I have never been religious in any way, this particular image has always fascinated me. I decided to pose one of my antique artist’s mannequins around a model to try to create a similar effect. I also endeavored to…
add an ethereal quality or other worldliness to the subject by using gold leaf and pastiglia in the background.
I worked on this painting over a period of about five years… it went through many, many changes and was eventually cut down on three sides to adjust the composition. It was begun shortly after I returned to my NYC studio from an extended stay in Florence, where my view was of Brunelleschi’s 15th Century High Renaissance building, known as the Hospital of the Innocents.
