Basic Information
Historical Context
Generally attributed to workshop with possible Boltraffio contributions. Named for pomegranate (resurrection symbol). Draws on Leonardo's Madonna types with Lombard workshop decorative elements. Multiple versions exist.
Artistic Appreciation
Pyramidal arrangement, intimate interaction, sfumato reflect Leonardo's direct influence. Formulaic sweetness and less refined anatomy suggest workshop execution.
Madonna and Child with Flowers (Madonna della Melagrana)
Visual Description
Virgin in half-length, Christ Child grasping pomegranate while reaching toward her. Tender, contemplative expression. Dark blue over red with transparent veil. Dark background.
