The image derives from a marble relief attributed to Benedetto da Maiano (1442-97), formerly in the Orléans collection at Bologna and now in the Blumenthal collection in New York. The location of the panel in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries is not known, and the immediate prototype of the maiolica panels was probably a terracotta or plaster cast. Label text from the exhibition ‘Madonnas and Miracles: The Holy Home in Renaissance Italy’, on display at The Fitzwilliam Museum from 7 March until 4 June 2017: This rectangular plaque has two holes at the top, suggesting that the image originally hung on a wall. The heavenly colours of blue, gold and white, as well as the starry background and the angels holding crowns, remind the viewer that, according to Catholic tradition, the Virgin was crowned ‘Queen of Heaven’ after her death. The Child is shown entwined in her golden veil. There are numerous panels of this type, which can be divided into two main groups. The relief moulding of one group, to which this example belongs, follows the iconography of the marble. The other group deviates from it in having a cherub's head in the fold of the drapery under the Virgin's left arm, which may be accompanied by a cherub or angel's head in the background on the right, or both sides, of the Virgin's head, sometimes obscured by the painted background. This group appears to be related to a painted plaster relief also attributed to Benedetto da Maiano in the Skulpurengalerie, Staatliche Museen Preussischer Kulturbesitz, Berlin. This has three cherub's heads, and is approximately the same size as the maiolica panels, 49.5 x 39 cm. A tondo, without cherub's heads, is in the Palazzo di Venezia, Rome (PV5480). The painted backgrounds of both groups of maiolica reliefs include draped curtains, draped curtains with a window on the left, a wall with or without drapes, and a landscape with buildings. The number of moulds used suggests that production continued over a long period, probably throughout the seventeenth century. The only dated example cited is at the Bowes Museum, Barnard Castle (X 1559). This belongs to the second group, and differs from most of the others in having a panel at the bottom bearing two coats of arms, and an inscription giving the date 25 February 1633. Somewhat similar panels, presumably inspired by an Italian example, were made at Triana, Seville. reference term-106447 adlib-term-106447 c24dda6b-b738-3a7d-bddf-648ede5b5cd4 17th Century reference term-110784 adlib-term-110784 306cbe64-9c29-347d-bae9-6fa7b2d98848 literal Italy Italy country Deruta reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Depth cm 3 Height cm 46.5 Width cm 37 reference media-200393 adlib-media-200393 9ab727b6-c713-3a30-b0cc-122fb4c205e9 jpeg aa/aa35/C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 957 width pixels 746 1742598156510 1 image jpeg aa/aa35/mid_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 641 width pixels 500 1742598156510 1 image jpeg aa/aa35/C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 957 width pixels 746 1742598156510 1 image jpeg aa/aa35/preview_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 321 width pixels 250 1742598156510 1 image 0 media image reference media-39458 adlib-media-39458 410b4104-688b-324b-8a74-57e15ed1f6c5 jpeg aa/aa9/C_2200_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582835388 1 image jpeg aa/aa9/mid_C_2200_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 649 width pixels 500 1742582835388 1 image jpeg aa/aa9/C_2200_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 740 width pixels 570 1742582835388 1 image jpeg aa/aa9/preview_C_2200_1928_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 325 width pixels 250 1742582835388 1 image 1 media image reference media-1436616696 portfolio portfolio-media-1436616696 fb66691c-2f0b-3245-b654-088cce1735ed jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/319/107/large_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1313 width pixels 1024 1511572214000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/319/107/mid_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 641 width pixels 500 1511572214000 1 image C.2200-1928_201601_kly25_mas.tif 1511572214000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/319/107/preview_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 321 width pixels 250 1511572214000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/319/107/C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 6246 width pixels 4872 1511572214000 1 image 2 media image reference media-2899946602 portfolio portfolio-media-2899946602 5902f12b-3f5a-3f0b-b152-852b6fb7df6c jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/624/660/large_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 1284 width pixels 1024 1550047704000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/624/660/mid_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 627 width pixels 500 1550047704000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/624/660/C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 3543 width pixels 2826 1550047704000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/624/660/preview_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 313 width pixels 250 1550047704000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/624/660/C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_dc1.ptif 1 height pixels 3543 width pixels 2826 1550047704000 1 image 3 media image reference media-3270997385 portfolio portfolio-media-3270997385 3c0aa4d8-93b7-34fc-b1da-5a0bec59e86c jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/41/811/large_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1313 width pixels 1024 1695946527000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/41/811/mid_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 641 width pixels 500 1695946527000 1 image C.2200-1928_201601_kly25_mas.tif 1695946527000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/41/811/preview_C_2200_1928_201601_kly25_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 321 width pixels 250 1695946527000 1 image 4 media image reference term-110143 adlib-term-110143 7880ba6f-ffc7-3954-a9b0-88af32dbff6c panel object name reference term-42865 adlib-term-42865 92be1d50-bb1c-3472-950f-b140ee6cdde9 maiolica category history note Acquired before 1902 by Dr J.W.L.
