Sacra Conversazione
by PESELLINO, Tempera on panel, 176 x 173 cm
The painting depicts the Madonna and Child with Sts Zenobius, John the Baptist, Anthony of Padua and Francis of Assisi. It formed the main panel of an altarpiece that probably had originally a predella. It is a late work by the artist, who died prematurely while working in Filippo Lippi’s studio.
