The MADONNA in Italian Art

Professor Coppola MFA MA will guide us through the great number of Italian paintings from the 13th century to the end of the Renaissance

The Holy Virgin has been the artistic subject of so many painters through the centuries of our Catholic Christian culture. With times, the features of the Madonna have undergone changes, such as her gown and ornaments, but mostly her representation reflects the current wave of adoration of the Madonna which inspired the artist. From masterpieces by the great artists of the Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Giorgione, Titian and Michelangelo, to the paintings by Caravaggio, Annibale Carraci, Luca Giordano, Salvatore Rosa, Gianmaria Crespi, Tiepolo, and Francesco Guardi.
