About Artwork: (About 1475-85) "This is one of only two surviving images of the Virgin and Child by Gentile Bellini. Its large size suggests that it was probably the central panel of a large polyptych (multi-panelled altarpiece). It has been connected with the apparently now-lost altarpiece that we know Gentile made for the Scuola dei Merciai (the confraternity of the merchants) in Venice. Gentile tailored the image to Venice and to his mercantile patrons, many of whom must have been involved in the city’s thriving trade in luxury textiles such as that worn here by the Virgin. The marble steps are covered with an oriental rug that resembles a prayer mat used by Muslims. Rugs like this date from around the mid-fifteenth century and were popular in Italy as exotic luxury items: one is recorded in the possessions of the Duke of Mantua in 1483." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
