Virgin and Child with Angels

Campagna received notable private commissions, including that for a marble Virgin and Child with Angels in San Salvador (Salvatore), executed for the Dolfin family. This group, Campagna’s first surviving attempt at this theme, betrays an obvious debt to Sansovino, but Campagna invested his figures with the more monumental forms of late Cinquecento art also to be seen in the paintings of Tintoretto and the sculpture of Giambologna.
