Focus on Madonna and Child with Michael the Archangel and St Andrew and discuss the Description.
The panel represents the Virgin with the Baby Jesus. On the left, Michael stands with a lance and on the right, Andrew the Apostle carries a cross. The background depicts the town of Collalto. At right, ruined marble architecture is seen in silhouette, with pilasters sculpted in classical motifs forming the background of the Virgin and Child. The novel composition accentuates the dynamism of the scene, which is depicted with sharp definition in the details and landscape, all in a soft, golden light.
