All auctions / Arts & Graphics / Limited Edition 2/25 Madonna of Loreto – Queen and Mother...


“Madonna di Loreto – Regina e Madre” is an artwork of intense spirituality dedicated to the Madonna of Loreto, here depicted according to refined Marian iconography, with the Child Jesus in her arms, both crowned and set within a solemn sacred architecture. The figure of the Virgin dominates the center of the composition with an austere, maternal, and deeply contemplative presence. The dark face, rendered with great intensity, immediately recalls the iconographic tradition of the Black Madonna of Loreto, while the richly decorated mantle envelops the figure with elegance and solemnity. The crown atop her head symbolically emphasizes Mary’s royalty, presented as Queen and Mother, the custodian and intercessor. On the Virgin’s arm is depicted the Child Jesus, also crowned. With one hand he makes a blessing gesture, while in the other he holds the globe surmounted by the cross, a symbol of Christ’s sovereignty over the world and his salvific mission. The Child’s position, gathered yet at the same time solemn, reinforces the devotional character of the scene and creates an intense visual dialogue with the maternal figure. Particularly evocative are the inscriptions placed on the side columns. On the left is the reference “Santa Maria di Loreto,” while on the opposite side the Latin invocation “Mater Dei, ora pro nobis,” “Mother of God, pray for us,” is inscribed. These elements make the subject immediately recognizable and transform the composition into a true image of prayer and Marian devotion. The architecture framing the figures contributes to giving the scene a monumental character. Arches, columns, and decorative motifs delimit the space like a small visual sanctuary, while the lily symbols and floral decorations evoke purity, royalty, and Christian tradition. Each element seems designed to guide the eye toward Mary and the Child, the spiritual center of the entire work. The work stands out for the extraordinary richness of the line and for a rendering reminiscent of an ancient devotional engraving. The strong contrast between the darker faces, the luminous garments, and the deep background enhances the solemnity of the composition, while the meticulous description of the crowns, the drapery, and the architectural elements gives the image an elegant and timeless presence. “Madonna di Loreto – Regina e Madre” is not merely a decoration, but a true devotional image, intended to accompany prayer, contemplation, and reverie. It is a work of particular significance for those who hold devotion to the Madonna di Loreto and for those who wish to introduce into their spaces a symbol of spiritual motherhood, protection, intercession, and faith. In the lower right, there is a red wax seal, a distinctive detail that adds personality to the work and creates a refined color contrast with the subdued tones of the composition. This element further enriches the piece, giving it a recognizable, intimate, and refined character. - Composition: 55% PU (Polyurethane), 20% Polyester, 5% Cotton, 20% Real Leather Fibers - Materials compliant with REACH regulations, environmentally friendly and free of harmful substances - Unframed artwork - Packaging and shipping: the artwork will be shipped rolled on a rigid cardboard backing to ensure maximum protection.
