SCHROEDER, ROSSITZA
- Abstract
This article discusses a 14th century Italo-Byzantine panel painting depicting the Virgin Mary and the baby Jesus on display at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Maryland. The author asserts that the Walters painting is a copy of Coppo di Marcovaldo's "Madonna del Bordone." She describes the characteristics of the piece, which is painted in tempera on a gabled wooden panel with a decorative frame. The positioning of the figures in the painting are analyzed and the distinctions between Eastern and Western religious art of this time period are also explored.
