Miraculously wedding deep Venetian hues, Lombardian realism and Gothic expressionism, the painting seems a superb summation of that place and that moment when the brusque Angst-filled winds from the north began to cool the warmth of Italy's golden age. The high Renaissance was poised before a modern world. Romanino knew...
