Bolognini Madonna

The Bolognini Madonna

The Bolognini Madonna is an oil on panel painting (later transferred to canvas) by Antonio da Correggio. It is dated to around 1514-1519, sometime between his Madonna and Child with St Francis (1514-1515) and his lost Albinea Madonna (1517-1519).[1] It has been attributed to Correggio since the late 19th century.[2] In 1865 it was left by Gian Giacomo Attendolo Bolognini to the Pinacoteca del Castello Sforzesco in Milan, where it now hangs.[3] It is compositionally related to the artist's Madonna and Child with the Infant John the Baptist.
