Nativity
Anonymous Lombardlate 15th - early 16th centuries - late 15th-early 16th centuries
Bagatti Valsecchi Museum
Milano, Italy
This little priivate devotional object betrays stylistic features of the Del Maino and of the De Donati workshops, which, in fact, were closely related. The themes were popular in northern Italy. Small traces of the original polychrome can be fouind. Probably purchased by the brothers Fausto and Giuseppe at the end of the 19th century, the Nativity is still displayed--as are all other objects in the museum--in its original place, thus contributing to the authentic "time capsule" ambiance.
