Virgin of Cambari

oil on board

Measures 35.5 x 25.4 cm


Important replica of the famous Virgin with Child in Cambrai Cathedral (France) made by an anonymous artist from the Siena school around 1340 in tempera and oil on cedar wood, which in turn copies a small Italo-Byzantine icon of the type Marian Eleusa.

This image attracted numerous pilgrims from all over Europe as it was believed to be the very effigy of the Virgin and Child painted by Saint Luke the Evangelist.
