Madonna And Child – Silk Embroidery, Late 19th / Early 20th Century

Charming devotional embroidery on ivory silk, depicting the Madonna and Child. The subject, inspired by classical iconography, is rendered with great delicacy through precise, hand-executed needlework. Threads in soft tones – cream, brown, grey, pale blue, and touches of red – gently define the figures’ serene expressions and the folds of their garments. The simplified halos and neutral background create an intimate and contemplative mood. The piece is mounted on a textile support and preserved in its original carved and gilt wooden frame, showing age-consistent wear.
Embroidery size: 19 × 27 cm Framed size: 30 × 41 cm
