The painting “Madonna Enthroned with Child and Saints” by Ghirlandaio in Lucca.
In Italy we are so used to meeting and observing works of art that we almost don’t even notice them anymore.
A few years ago, for example, I spent a couple of days in Lucca and while visiting the cathedral of San Martino I photographed this beautiful work by Ghirlandaio.
Perhaps not his most famous work but still a masterpiece!

The Madonna Enthroned with Child and Saints is a tempera painting on oak panel (170×160 cm) by Domenico Ghirlandaio, datable to around 1479 and preserved in the Cathedral of San Martino in Lucca. The work is one of the first known panel tests by the author, then fresh from his first successes for the Vespucci family in Florence and in the chapel of Santa Fina in San Gimignano.
