Lead image horribly inaccurate.[edit]

  • The version on the Louvre website looks NOTHING like this image; I'd suggest we use the unrestored version as the lead, as the current one bears no resemblance to any state of the artwork. Adam Cuerden (talk) 13:28, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I went ahead and swapped it. Adam Cuerden (talk) 13:31, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

sources of Virgin's position in lap of St. Anne[edit]

In placing the Virgin in the lap of St. Anne, Leonardo was resuscitating a configuration common to iconic Medieval art but that had fallen into disuse in the more naturalistic paintings of the Middle Renaissance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anotherbozo (talk • contribs) 16:35, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne
The Virgin and Child with St. Anne is an oil painting by Leonardo da Vinci depicting Saint Anne, her daughter the Virgin Mary and the infant Jesus. Christ is shown grappling with a sacrificial lamb on the edge of a precipice, symbolizing his Passion. It is likely that the painting was commissioned by King Louis XII of France following the birth of his daughter Claude in 1499, but it was never delivered to him. Leonardo probed into incorporating these figures together through preparatory works including the Burlington House Cartoon, now in the National Gallery, London, and a drawing which resides in the Louvre, Paris. The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne is also in the Louvre.Painting: Leonardo da Vinci
