Légende

Madonna of the Cherries, about 1520-1525. Additional Info: This sumptuous and moving depiction of the familial bond between the Virgin and Christ Child is among Quentin Metsys’s most beautiful and celebrated paintings. Long thought lost and only recently identified, it exemplifies Metsys’s distinctive style, fashioned from his absorption of Netherlandish visual traditions and keen appreciation of significant recent Italian artistic developments.
