Stefan Lochner- The Virgin and Child in a Rose Arbour


That Lochner manages to create such a beautifully naive painting without, even with those angels, lapsing into sickly sweetness is remarkable. Though I imagine some would beg to differ about the angels - and maybe it would be greater without them! One of the most charming and profoundly innocent of Western paintings.
