Virgin and Child Tondo with Madonna with child Jesus and angel, Round relief with Mary standing behind a plinth, on which stands the child Jesus, which she presents to the viewer through the gesture of her right hand. Jesus holds his mother's left hand and makes a blessing gesture with his right arm and hand, which qualifies him as a Salvator. In the background an angel floats on a cloud, the rest of the background consists of horizontal, stripe-shaped cloud formations. The whole is framed by an inner edge of wide lying beads, always interspersed with two flat, standing beads, around it a frieze of connected palmettes. The rear surface runs slightly deepened upwards within this frame, resulting in an enhanced perspective effect of the tondo. The tondo runs on the back with a concave profile and a bead list. The side is roughly chopped, the back is cut flat., Antonio Rizzo, Venice, c. 1465 - c. 1470, marble (rock), d 86 cm × t 13 cm
