The Virgin and Child seated on a low wall, against a landscape background, attributed to the master by the Louvre, illustrates this way. The sacred figure is close to the viewer, but the deep landscape, paths, vegetation and architecture open the panel towards one world meticulously observed. The low wall creates a threshold between devotional presence and natural space. Rounded faces, calm gestures, clean folds and strong colors make the image immediately accessible.
