Madonna and Child Porcelain Ornament Set
Art ornaments inspired by The Met collection.
This pair of porcelain ornaments celebrates two adoring depictions of the Madonna and Child, a timeless tradition well represented in The Met collection.
Featured on one ornament is a detail from a charming portrayal created around 1481–82 by Vittore Crivelli (Italian, active by 1465–died 1501/2), whose richly symbolic painting includes a carnation, representing love; cherries, which are emblems of original sin; and a devotional book. The goldfinch held by the Child represents the Passion of Jesus.
Presented on the other ornament is a detail from Madonna and Child with Saints Francis and Dominic and Angels, a spectacular altarpiece by Giulio Cesare Procaccini (Italian, 1574–1625). Saints and angels envelop mother and child in this tightly woven image that borrows Parmigianino's flickering paint surfaces and Ludovico Carracci's anatomical contortions. Procaccini began his career as a sculptor, but established himself as a painter in Milan by 1610. This exuberant work was likely commissioned by the Spanzotta family around 1612.
