The Madonna with Child (known as Madonna Oggioni)
Bernardino Luini1515 approx.
Sforzesco Castle
Milan, Italy
In this painting references to Leonardo coexist with the new classicist orientations of Lombard culture. In the complex hairstyle of the Virgin we can recognise references to the "Madonna Litta" (St. Petersburg, Hermitage), while the stylistic choices of the painting suggest Perugino's more recent work.
