Légende

Madonna with the Christ Child Writing, c1410-1420. In this masterpiece, the Christ Child, cradled in his mother's left arm, energetically stretches out his right hand to put away his quill pen in the pen case hanging on a delicate strap from Mary's right wrist. Most likely he has just written the names of the saved on the piece of vellum in his left hand. Behind them, angels display a richly woven cloth to honor Mary as Queen of Heaven while others sing.
