  • Virgin and Child with Four Angels (or Virgin and Child with Angels) is a small oil-on-panel painting by the Early Netherlandish artist Gerard David. Likely completed between 1510 and 1515, it shows the Virgin Mary holding the child Jesus, while she is crowned Queen of Heaven by two angels above her, accompanied by music provided by another two angels placed at either side of her. In its fine detail and lush use of colour the work is typical of both David and late period Flemish art. The painting is heavily influenced by Jan van Eyck's Virgin with Child at a Fountain, especially in the modeling of the Madonna and child. However, David has introduced many significant modifications, including the widening of the pictorial space, the placement of two additional angels, and the setting of the scene in a contemporary setting with a view of Bruges in the distance. Van Eyck's panel was heavily influenced by the conventions of Byzantine art, and was likely itself a blend of specific works. Yet the painting is mid-Renaissance in its humanising of the Virgin and child; in earlier works the mother and child figures were presented as distant and remote deities. In David's panel they are entirely human and recognisable as an affectionate and bonded mother and son. Virgin and Child with Four Angels has been housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, since its donation from a private collection in 1977. David inscribed the painting with the words "IHESVS [RE]DEMPT[OR]" ("Jesus Redeemer") on the columns. (en)

  • A Virgem e o Menino com quatro Anjos (ou A Virgem e o Menino com Anjos) é uma pintura a óleo sobre madeira do pintor flamengo Gerard David completada provavelmente entre 1510 e 1515, obra que se supõe ter sido destinada inicialmente ao Convento da Ordem dos Cartuxos de Sint-Kruis, Bruges, e que se encontra actualmente no Metropolitan Museum of Art de Nova Iorque. A Virgem e o Menino com quatro Anjos representa a Virgem Maria com o Menino Jesus nos braços sendo coroada como Nossa Senhora Rainha por dois anjos que pairam acima dela, acompanhados pela música tocada por dois anjos colocados a seu lado. David colocou a inscrição "IHESVS [RE]DEMPT[OR]" ("Jesus Redentor") nas colunas. Os detalhes delicados e o uso soberbo da cor são típicos tanto de Gerard David como da fase final da arte flamenga. Para esta pintura, Gerard David foi muito influenciado pela A Virgem e o Menino na Fonte de Jan Van Eyck, especialmente no desenho das figuras da Virgem Maria e do Menino Jesus. No entanto, David introduziu muitas modificações significativas, incluindo o alargamento do espaço pictórico, a colocação de dois anjos adicionais e o enquadramento da cena numa paisagem contemporânea com uma vista de Bruges a meia distância. A Virgem e o Menino com quatro Anjos está no Metropolitan Museum of Art de Nova Iorque desde 1977 por doação de Charles Wrightsman, um coleccionador privado. (pt)
