Virgin and Child  1500

by Jan Provoost

The Virgin in a Rose Garden—with the figure sometimes shown crowned—was one of the favorite courtly themes of late Gothic painting. The picture's style reflects Provost's training with the manuscript illuminator Simon Marmion in Valenciennes. (Source: The Metropolitan Museum of Art)
