Madonna and Child with Saint Barbara, Saint Cristina, and two donors

Negretti Jacopo called Jacopo Palma the Elder

(Serina c. 1480 - Venice 1528)

Text not translated yet
Il dipinto è sicuramente rintracciabile negli inventari solo a partire dal fidecommisso del 1833. Il soggetto della tela, comunemente definito ‘Sacra conversazione’, sarà particolarmente gradito alla committenza privata, tanto da avere uno straordinario successo nel secolo XVI. Ai lati della Vergine, assisa su un trono dal basamento scolpito, sono inginocchiati i due committenti del quadro, rispettivamente presentati a sinistra da santa Barbara, identificabile per l'attributo della torre, e a destra da santa Cristina, che reca sotto il braccio la pietra da macina del martirio.
