Assunzione della Vergine Maria tra angeli e santi Montalcino
Artist: Ignoto Maestro senese
Current location: Santa Maria delle Grazie
Original location: Santa Maria delle Grazie
DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION
The Assumption of the Virgin is placed under a 15th-century painted arch.
Mary is seated in a mandorla, carried to heaven by a host of angels.
The composition is symmetrical, reflecting the format of the central group of the Virgin and Child.
In fact, the painter appears to have used the same cartoon, reversed, to depict the angels welcoming the Virgin to heaven.
