Stone columns rest on green cushions, which seem to be carved and coloured in a deceptive imitation of reality. Stone branches sprout from the column tops and are entwined in stone acanthus leaves. In the upper corners, two babies, carved from whitish stone, grasp the stems which meet over the Virgin’s head.\n\nThe Virgin holds an open book in one hand but glances sideways at her son. He is playing with the Renaissance equivalent of a bubble maker. The bubble is a reference to an ancient proverb, homo bulla (‘man is a bubble’), which was used by artists as a reminder of mortality.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/workshop-of-jean-bellegambe-the-virgin-and-child\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - The Virgin and Child\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Workshop of Jean Bellegambe","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50510044659955,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (28 1\/8\" x 20 3\/4\")","offer_id":50510044692723,"sku":null,"price":1050.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (20 7\/8\" x 15 3\/8\")","offer_id":50510044725491,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (25 1\/2\" x 18 7\/8\")","offer_id":50510044758259,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (31 1\/4\" x 23\")","offer_id":50510044791027,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (40 3\/8\" x 29 7\/8\")","offer_id":50510044823795,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (48 3\/8\" x 35 5\/8\")","offer_id":50510044856563,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (57\" x 42 1\/8\")","offer_id":50510044889331,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (68 1\/2\" x 50 1\/2\")","offer_id":50510044922099,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/TheVirginandChild_4c79eddb-63b5-4102-9068-8dfb20262b26.jpg?v=1788412377","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/the-virgin-and-child-ngal1785","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
