Madonna and Child with Angels, 1459-1460. The subject of the Madonna and Christ Child, shown close up from behind a parapet, is a very common one for a devotional painting such as this. An interesting feature in this example is the coral necklace worn by Christ. Coral was believed to keep the devil away and many babies at this time had a coral teething ring or necklace.
