Lot 1501 D α

In the centre of the painting, the enthroned Virgin holds the Christ Child, flanked by two female and two male saints, including St. Peter. We can assume that this painting once formed the central panel of a triptych intended for private devotion.
The Master of the Lazzaroni Madonna (Maestro della Madonna Lazzaroni) was active in Florence in the second half of the 14th century. A comparable altarpiece by the artist can be found in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Dijon (Fototeca Zeri, no. 2595).
