Virgin and Child by the Workshop of Andrea della Robbia in the Philadelphia Museum of Art, August 2009
Virgin and Child
Workshop of Andrea Della Robbia, Italian (active Florence), 1435 - 1525
Geography: Made in Italy, Europe
Date: c. 1500
Medium: Glazed earthenware
Dimensions: 22 3/4 x 14 3/4 x 5 5/8 inches (57.8 x 37.5 x 14.3 cm) Framed: 32 7/8 x 19 7/8 x 5 3/4 inches (83.5 x 50.5 x 14.6 cm)
Curatorial Department: European Decorative Arts and Sculpture
Object Location: Gallery 251, European Art 1500-1850, second floor
Accession Number: 1956-45-6
Credit Line: Gift of Mrs. Harry Payne Bingham, 1956
Label:
Images of the Virgin and Child could be found in many homes in fifteenth-century Florence. The intimate and tender portrayal of mother and infant as if seen through a window with a ledge was popularized in both painting and sculpture, thought to help children learn about religion.
The della Robbia family became famous for inventing the technique of making molded and glazed ceramic sculptures. These could be replicated in some numbers, perhaps making them affordable for relatively modest households.
