A Masterpiece of the High Renaissance

The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne is a stunning example of Leonardo da Vinci's mastery of the oil painting technique, showcasing his deep understanding of anatomy, light, and shadow. The painting depicts Saint Anne, her daughter the Virgin Mary, and the infant Jesus in a harmonious composition that exudes a sense of calm and serenity.

A Symbolic Work of Art

The painting is rich in symbolism, with Christ grappling with a sacrificial lamb, representing his Passion, while the Virgin tries to restrain him. This dynamic interaction between mother and child adds a layer of complexity to the work, inviting viewers to contemplate the deeper meaning behind the scene.

A Commissioned Work

Commissioned by King Louis XII of France following the birth of his daughter in 1499, The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne was never delivered to him. The painting remained unfinished, leaving us with a tantalizing glimpse into Leonardo's creative process.
